Default new to the site, questions about my accord

i just purchased a 94 accord w/ a jdm h22a swap about 2 weeks ago. the car rides surprisingly well for being only 4-5 inches from the ground.

anywho, there are a few minor problems with it that id like to get resolved.

1) the IACV is bad and the car, once warmed up, will go from 600rpm to 1500 rpm, then go back down. it does this all the time.

3) the reverse lights are out. i have bought replacement bulbs, but im wondering where the fuse box iis located as im sure one of the fuses is blown, hence both not working.

6) the headlights and bright lights are not aimed properly. the drivers side headlight is aimed correctly, but the passenger side one is aimed alot higher than the drivers side.
the bright lights are both at the same level, but both are aimed *alot* higher than the regular lights


many thanks for your responses. i look foreward to seeing what this site has to offer!

-edit-

these 3 questions are the ones im having the biggest problem solving. ive got the rest handled. thanks!

i searched on the headlight issue, but i cant seem to locate any screw near my headlights. also, i turned up 0 articles for aiming the high beams. im really at a loss as to where this screw is located.

the plastics are a moot point. im really most concerned right now about my headlights and getting them aimed properly. ill post up pictures when i get off work of my headlight assembly.

Not sure if you have "levels" on your headlight (bubble of air).......unbolt the housing until it aimed properly then tighten the bolts. It's probably just off center.

do you have the owners manual? there are diagrams for both fuses, and headlight aiming.

there are 3 fuse boxes (2 when you open the door, and one under the hood) and there are 2 screws you have to turn on each light to aim horiz and vert.

i'll go scan my manual in later if you dont have it.

well, i think i found the first screw on both sides to aim the light vertically, but thats the only one ive found. if youre looking at the light from the front, its right above it, on the top right corner (assuming youre looking at the passenger side light).

ah bugger ill just take a pic and explain what im trying to type.
