Not really, of course. But my question is that on a cold start my engine idles high like usual. I can hear the SRI sucking like a vacuum. But when I turn the heater on the cars idle lowers massively, and the vacuum noise goes away. I don't recall it doing this at all during winter time, and it's still fairly nippy here. I'm thinking maybe it could be the alternator, but I'm not sure.

I'm pretty sure that's normal. Mine does the same thing and so does my friend's Prelude.
Say, starts idling around 1,600-1,750, turn on the the A/C or heater, then drops to about 1,000-1,150? This post has been edited by HectortheRican: Mar 22, 2011 - 1:45 PM -------------------- taking too long to mod since '09
