Adjust the idle speed using a Honda PGM Tester if pos-
sible. lf not, use the following procedure:
NOTE:
. Leave the IAC valve connected.
. Before s€tting the idle speed, check the following
rtems:- The MIL has not been reported on.
- lgnition timing
- Spark Plugs- Air clean€r
- PCV svstem
'1. Connect a tachometer.
2. Stan the engine. Hold the engine at 3,000 rpm w'th
no load (transmission in E or E] position) until the
radiator Jan comes on, then let it idle.
3. Check the idle speed under no-load conditions:
head lights, blower fan, rear defogger, radiator fan,
and air conditioner are not operatlng.

System Description
The emission control system includes a Three Way Cata-lytic Convener (TWC), Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR)
system,. Positive Crankcase Ventilation (pCV) system andEvaporative Emission (EVAP) Control system. The emis-sion control system is designed to meet federal and stateemission standards.*: D16Y5 engine

Inspestion
@@ Do not smoke during ihis procedure. Keepany open flame away from your work area.
1. Start the engine. Hold the engine at 3,000 rpm withno load (in Park or neutral) until the radiator fancomes on. then let it idle.
2. Connect a tachometer.
Check and, if necessary, adjust the idle speed (see
page 11-220 - 223).
Warm up and calibrate the CO meter according to themeter manufacturer's instructions.
Check idle CO with the headlights, heater blower,rear window defogger, cooling fan, and air condition-er off.
NOTE: (Canada) Pull the parking brake lever up.Start the engine, then check that the headlights areoff.
CO mete. should indicate 0.1% maximum.
NOTE: '98 Dl6Y5 engine - lf the idle speed incress-es to 8101 50 rpm, this means the EVAp system ispurging the canister. To stop the purging temporari-ly. raise the engine speed above 1,000 rpm with theaccelerator pedal, then slowly release the pedal.
