Hey all, new here!
Probably a stupid question but I’m new to Honda’s. I have an 88 Accord LX that I was given, the car is lime a time capsule it’s so clean!
Okay to the point, when you start the car cold the idle shoots up to 2500 rpm, after a moment if I jab the gas pedal it will drop to 1500rpm but no lower. So I started looking at the carb and found that the choke won’t disengage unless I hold the choke plate open and tap the throttle linkage, then it idles right down to 1000rpm. So I traced all vacuum lines that where involved with the choke, when I traced vacuum line #18 past the hard line section it went back to to soft line and down to some sort of what I imagine is a 3 way valve that’s screwed into the intake or block I couldn’t quite tell. Anyhow that “valve” was snapped off the part that screws in. If anyone could tell me what that’s called so I can get a replacement and have a properly functioning choke, and what I imagine would be quite the vacuum leak fixed aswell haha I would forever in your debt!
