Default *idle Problem

so i put my stock intake back on (because im puting everything back to stock in order to sell the car), and now the car idles at 2000 rpm's. i first start the car and its at about 1700 rpm, but once you give it gas and come to a stop again, its stuck at 2000. i still have the header and catback on if that may be doing something, i have no clue. it's a 94 accord ex 5spd by the way. if anyone could help me out i would appreciate it. thanks

there's a fuse you need to pull. when you disconnect the terminal, there's still backup power for the ecu. try to search for it, i only know how to do it on the 6th gens :happysad:

hey, thanks for all the help. the problem has been fixed. not really sure what did it, but i disconnected the battery,removed the radio fuse, took the entire intake assembly off, excluding resonator and the other bullsh!t down there in the fender, and made sure all of the pieces were properly functioning and securely tightened to avoid leaks. i put everything back together and made sure everything was put back correctly, started her up, drove around for a few minutes to warm everything up, and the idle returned to normal; between 500 and 1000 rpms. thanks for the help guys.
