Thank you. I figured out after reading your reply. The new “gasket” I bought is a sandwich of grey-gasket, metal plate, and grey-gasket. These three layer are pressed together.

Just double-check, there are metal plate and gasket, two separate pieces? I ordered “ACURA OEM 18721-PR7-A01 Exhaust Air Supply Gasket“. What I got is a piece, that looks like grey-ish special fiber gasket, NOT a metal piece.
My original EGR gasket looks like a metal piece.
I am a little bit confused. Should I just install new fiber-like gasket without my original metal piece?

Hey, Thank you Eric. You have been my online mentor of fixing car for a while. I learned a lot.
In terms of your point, I didn’t remove intake. All I did was remove EGR passage and its metal plate gaskets at two end. I cleaned them and the holes on both intake side and exhaust side.
Will EGR gaskets leak cause vacuum leak?
It is possible that the old EGR metal gasket didn’t sit on EGR passage flange really well.
I tried your carb cleaner method on the exhaust side of EGR passage gasket, which is easy to access. It didn’t change idle. I may spray some on the other side this weekend.
BTW, I had my fire extinguisher next to me, lol.

I went to Honda dealer several weeks ago and they told me it is due to ABS accumulator leak. I searched online and people say sometimes it is due to leaking of the o ring for accumulator. I took off the ABS unit and replaced that today, it doesn’t solve problem.
BTW, another symptom that I forgot to mention, I saw some fluid leaking out from the top cap of ABS reservoir. It seems to me, pressure restriction in modulator can cause this symptom.
1. “Code 31 shows to be ABS right- front inlet solenoid valve malfunction.” Is solenoid valve located in the modulator unit?
Is that possible, that the solenoid just stuck somewhere due to dust or clogging(Can I try opening it and flushing it?)? Or I should replace the whole modulator?
2. I took of ABS unit and its brake line, so I had to bleed air out of brake system using soda bottle + plastic hose. I did passenger rear, driver rear, driver front and passenger front because it seems, passenger rear is the farthest one, then driver rear… so on. Did I bleed them in correct order? Also, when I got all clear fluid out of hose to soda bottle, I can still see some very fine bubble, like bubble in beer. I waited a couple minutes and shut off bleeder valve. Will these fine air bubble in the brake line cause big problem?

I will try to record reading tomorrow.
BTW, If I pull 3 ECU fuse out and disconnect battery, did I clear the KAM memory in ECU?
