98 civic wont run, iac valve check engine light.
OK so you can look at my other post. My 98 civic still isnt running after rebuild checked everything and its good as far as compression, firing, gas. Now when i got it towed the ecu that i was throwing was for the iac valve. Now i think that i may have had the plugs backwards. Does anyone have a picture of the wiring harness connecting to the engine or anything like that? Thanks.

even if u unplug or had it the wrong way that would not impede the car from starting. it would just idle like shit. mine is fucked up and i get the code for it all the time but my car always runs and idles fine.

Any ideas why it couldn't be starting? I really have checked everything. Only thing i could think is maybe i have some plugs from the harness to sensors wrong.

if you really want it fixed take it to Neil sutton at NS racing he will fix ur shit. anytime i have problems i cannot fix i just take it to that guy and he fix. its expensive but he will fix it for sure if it can be fixed
i handed him this awful harness that i got when i bought my shell and he turned straw into gold and for 300 dollars he fixed my entire harness and fixed my timing belt problem and did a valve adjustment, he spent like 8 hours on it and it looked perfect after he was done like it was stock.

I have heard great things about them but largo is very far for me to get my car towed to. Im in Dade city/zephyrhills area. and largo is nearly and hour and a half. Im gonna look for some shop closer to here or a mobile mechanic. I really need to have the car running by Monday which is more than likely not gonna happen.
