    Nag pa tune ako yesterday. According to the mechanic, hindi daw possible na i adjust yung idling ng 99 VTi ko. Computer box daw bahala dun. What to do? Bumababa kasi idling ko when the aircon kicks in

    check your idle up actuator.

    I also had the same problem with my VTi automatic. The idling goes down when aircon is on. We had it adjusted by some mechanic but only to make things worse. So we had no choice but to bring it to Honda. There was just a simple problem with the timing and the car was returned to us in normal condition within a day.

    I think you should bring it to Honda to be sure. :wink:

    Your air intake tube goes to a metal part, at the back of the engine, now look at it from the passenger side, you will see a copper screw (minus type), you'll actually see only the top part, use a flat screw driver to turn it, one way brings your idle down the other is up
    hope this helps, I'll post a pic if I can find 1

    with regards to the timing. Do they use a timing gun for this? And diba air-fuel mixture adjustments lang ang silbi nito?

    Yup air fuel mixture nga, and will bring your idling up/down

    this one also, and when I shift to neutral, bumabagsak sa mga 500rpm tapos tataas ulit sa 750rpm, pero mabilis lang. Aircon turned on
