My 98 honda civic HX starts to die at when I come to a stop without the AC on. I replaced the spark plugs, rotor and rotor cap, cleaned the throttle body and still no change. My gas mileage with down the tubes at the same time, what should I do next?

Hi eaglesdaremusic,

Which system is used on the throttle? EACV or ISC type?

If it is EACV then try adjusting the idling speed. If ISC then you need to clean it up.

Carb spray can clean the throttle but it won't clean the ISC well unless you have compressed air to help.
