Odd RPM Problem
#11
It's a D15b. Nothing after the b. JDM or something like that. Yes the light works. A month or so back when I cleaned the IACV and put it back on, it actually did die all the way out because I forgot to reset the ECU and then I did get a light. Would it still have that code after all this time? I'm pretty sure I've reset it since then.

Ok. Finally verified that the FIV is there. I'll clean that up this weekend or maybe sooner depending on the weather. I seem to have a coolant leak somewhere, but I never see any under my car or anywhere under the hood when I go looking. Any tips for finding out what's going on? Where should the coolant in the reservoir be when the engine's hot (Max vs Min)? When it's cold?

If the engine slows down too much with the A/C on, but otherwise OK, you can try opening the idle adjusting screw (turn counterclockwise).
Proper fill is anywhere between the lines with the engine cold. It should go up when it is hot.

Ok. I believe the surge may be gone. It really shows up a whole lot more when it's cooler out, and that just isn't happening for a while, unfortunately, so I don't want to say fixed or not. She's still idling insanely low though. I still need to try adjusting the FITV, and I'm also betting I'm in need of a new thermostat, 'cause I'm sure it still has the original '92 in there. Poor thing hasn't ever been taken care of.
