    I have some responses from clubrsx, and one that could potentially fix it all.

    Do you guys have kpro too? If you do, this is what I'm going to try. From Hondata:

    7. Increase the engine speed to 2500 - 3000 rpm and abruptly let off the throttle. If the engine speed dips below 850 rpm, move the duty cycle slider to the right. If the engine speed hangs above 850rpm for some time, move the duty cycle slider to left.

    If you do the above and your engine idle is still off, then its likely time to clean out the IACV as Doug suggested.

    I had the same issue with mine when the engine sat for about two months without use while i was collecting everything to swap in my k24a1. It didnt want to idle properly, so i messed with the slider for the IACV in KPro. It would improve while i sat in my parking spot, but as i tried to drive it would either idle way too high... or stall... depending on the direction of the adjustment.

    I did the DIY for the IACV and problem solved. Youd be surprised the crap that collects on that little rotor in the IACV... even through normal use.

    Woohoo! The duty cycle slider did the trick! The rpms drop right to 1k rpm and stays there. I love it when these things end up to be an easy fix! Try it out if you have kpro. Hopefully it works for you guys too! Otherwise, the other links I posted had a few other good suggestions as well.
