The idle control circuit consists entirely of the BAC valve. The ASV is used in a few circumstances and doesn't really effect the idle generally.

You'll find the diagrams in the Haynes and FSM.

The Factory Service Manual can be found in the FAQ For FC thread. It contains all this information and more, and is an essential tool for any sort of service work that needs to be performed on these cars.

Additionally, the Haynes service manual for the 1986 thru 1991 RX-7 (both turbo and NA) can be found at most local auto parts stores or purchased from any good bookstore (ISBN number 1 56392 007 7). It is only about $25 and is a great quick reference for things like this. Not only does it contain most of the information in the FSM condensed into an easy to read format, but it includes full wiring diagrams as well.

These manuals will answer 99% of service related questions for the car and if you intend to do your own repair work, you will need at least one of them. Preferably both, since the FSM is a free download.

Both valves just connect to the inlet duct just after the AFM. Assuming you don't have any air leaks, and your TPS is adjusted properly, the car should idle. What are your symptoms?
