It's the "fast idle solenoid valve" according to the sticker on the inside of my 1991 CRX Si's hood (D16A6 engine).
Fast Idle Control Valve is correct - only on 89-91 Si - not on 88 - also, not on DOHC ZC - the Fast Idle Control Valve is used to advance the idle when ambient air temperature is below -10C (14F)

Interesting. So the reason it isn't on some engines is because it's not a necessary component? Or it just doesn't get that f*ing cold in Japan...
