engine rpm surge. help needed.

[Rapom]

ah yes Hondata. only used it one time in a friends turbo application on an Acura RDX pretty cool. messed around with a Diablo Sport tuner on a Chrysler 300 SRT-8 i used to have. pretty scary stuff. lets you change ALOT more than it should. including fuel maps. i added 30% more fuel at 7000 rpm and almost blew it up... ment to add .3% not 30!!!

so today ive noticed on 2 occasions while the kick was cold (sat for more than 10 hours at 15*F) during cold idle i CAN NOT reproduce the surge buy means. this is new to me. i never put thought to it about hot or cold effecting the surge. apparently it only does it after warmed up. does that bit of info help or hurt us?

and another thing..

this ISC needs fixed asap! tonight i had to use headlights, radio, and defrost (ac on)... with all this load.. (even at high cold idle) when i shifted to drive... the poor little guy was idling at 200 rpm. headlights were very dim (due to low rpm alt output) but i feel if i had to run one more thing, example... if it were raining. the engine would stall. + lugging at 200 rpm has to be bad. im thinking i need to address the ISC first... where is this located? can i remove it without damaging a gasket? clean or replace?

and then after we get ALLLLL of the engine sorted... its then time to tackle the slush pump. (tcc not locking up/delay then la la land from 1st to 2nd) another day... another day
