Starting problem

RE: Starting problem
Before you start your car each time, turn the key to the "on" position and give it about 5 seconds then start the car, this gives the fuel lines time to pressurize, If it starts perfect every time when doing that then you can look into other options.

RE: Starting problem
Well the check engine light came back on today, code is reading 43, fuel system yet again. Ideas? Wondering if this code may have something to do with my low idle issue? I posted the following on the "1990 accord id;e issue" thread, my car seems to idle on the lowside when put into drive or reverse I downloaded the service bulletin on the DIY page to give it a try. My car has never stalled but it seems like it wants to when I come to a complete stop like at a red light. I started going thru the steps in the bulletin and #9 states: [align=left]Disconnect the 2P connector on the IAC (idle air[/align][align=left]control) valve (EACV on ’90–91 models), and[/align][align=left]check for vacuum at the throttle body lower port.[/align][align=left]Is there vacuum?[/align][align=left]YES – The IAC valve is stuck open. Replace[/align][align=left]it, then go to step 13.[/align][align=left]NO – Go to step 10. Keep the IAC valve[/align][align=left]disconnected for steps 10 thru 12.[/align][align=left][/align][align=left]When I disconnect the 2P connector the car stop running, so how can I check for vacuum? I stopped at this point to seek help from the forum.Should I be following this buttetin to diagnose my idle problem or be doing something else? Thanks for any help.[/align]
