Default iacv and tps problem

Quick overview: emissions are coming up engine light came on shortly after 1.8 cam install and a custom cai, which does not have hole for the sensor. Car will fluctuate at idle when cold...



What you guys think



Spitting out tps and iacv code personally I think it would just be the iacv

Sensors in the intake make the car run better. Whatever sensor is not in the pipe, get it in there or your fancy new intake is LAME.



Then reset the computer and see what codes come up. Testing the TPS takes 30 seconds so you might as well give that a shot too.
