Exactly the same as my 4th with no FITV except I know it isn't going to run by itself so always start it with accelerator and hold it for 30+ seconds.

because your describing what I go through with the car especially in winter

I'll have to check to see if I'm running one of them now

Where is it located on the ATR?... Under the TB or is it remote?

The ATR does not have a FITV but there is a coolant line that goes to the bottom of the TB.

What's that there to do, then?

That's what made me think it might have been remote. I know the TB I have for my 4th gen build is the same design in that sense. So does it just allow coolant to run through constantly? Surely there's a shut off?

Ok, according to this dude (Targa250R) http://honda-tech.com/honda-civic-2001- ... s-2503114/

There is a sensor in the bottom of the ATR TB that electronically senses the coolant temp and adjusts idle that way.
