ok awesome, i will give that a shot. will this make the car idle higher on an initial cold startup though?

Status: offline 		ok, just gave it a shot and it didnt do a friggin thing. i had the screw out pretty far too, the idle doesnt want to come above 500rpm. i saw that the factory says it should be 700 +- 50. is there any alternate route? may i have a bad sensor? the last thing i want to do to the car is a tune up with all Honda OE parts this time. what should i do if the problem persists? live with it? lol
