I have a carbureted 89 accord LX. Can you guys please explain what the two spring-loaded screws near the idle diaphragm are for?
The reason I'm asking is that I tried setting the idle by turning the throttle stop screw. I was able to set the idle when the car's in P or N. But when I turned on the headlights and shit with the car in D, it then idles too low and shakes. And when I turn up the throttle stop screw it's fine but then it idles too high in P or N.
I've read some stuff about these screws in previous threads but don't quite understand. So are these the screws I need to set?
Any advice is much appreciated. It's been very frustrating!!!
