Runnin'' Rough - 9/27/2008 4:43:33 PM    imjrk Posts: 52 Joined: 2/13/2007 Status: offline ''96 Accord, VTECH, auto: replaced engine, hopefully have all wires and vacuum lines correct.  Engine starts and idles just fine, can let it idle for 10-15-20 minutes and it still idles smooth as silk.  As soon as I drive it a few yards the idle becomes really rough and drops to less than 500 RPM and stalls unless I keep some pressure on the gas pedal.  The idle stays rough and very low until I shut it off and let it get stone cold.  Then the proccess begins all over again, as soon as the engine warms to operating temp AND I drive it a few yards, the idle goes down and gets rough.  This has me perplexed, I can idle it all day and it is fine, put the trans in drive and it goes BAD.  Check engine light is on throws a PO135 code.  Thanks, any help would be greatly appreciated.
