How about the fitv? The fitv is bolted onto the throttle body. It's mounted on 3 bolts.

I apologize, I thought you were referring to an obd1 d series civic, since this is the forum for it. The d16y8 is an obd2 d series and does NOT have the fitv. Try checking to see if you have a vacuum leak around your intake manifold. Also, if that doesn't work, maybe reset the ecu by taking the fuse out then turn the car on and rev the car to 2500 rpms for a good 5 minutes, or until its warmed up

To reset the ECU you just take out the 2.5A backup fuse under the hood, then tap the brake or headlights to kill the surface charge. I have no idea where he gets that crazy procedure.
That will do nothing for you however.
Take off the distributor cap and look at the rotor. Twice now I have come across cars where the little screw works its way out and rattles around inside there. I put locktite on the screw and then use an impact screwdriver when I need to get it loose again.
