There is one torx screw holding it on. Once you take that off there are two o rings holding it inside. You may have to use a flat head screwdriver between that and the throttle body and carefully pry it off.

IDLE AIR CONTROL VALVE (IAC) The (IAC) is located under the Triton Plastic cover in the middle of the engine compartment. Very easy to replace. There are two bolts and one plug. It should only take you around 10 or 15 minutes to change. Buy it new; it doesn't even pay to clean it. It works half the times. But it will go bad eventually…

How do you adjust the throttle sensor to stop it from idling to fast?

On 1992-96 Mitsubishi Diamante's the idle control valve goes bad after some time. The car will idle real fast and bounce when you put it in gear,or idle very slowly to the point of dying if you don't give it gas . Adjusting the throttle will not correct the problem.Others suggest changing the throttle body,changing the mass air flow device (MAS sensor) among other suggestions.Usually it is the idle control valve. Remove and replace the idle contol valve,also called idle air valve,stepper valve ,stepper motor,ISC,etc. It is a small part located on the lower half of the rear of the throttle body. This is probably the easiest and also cheapest option of those mentioned above and it'll more than likely be the fix too,try it!


If your Chevy Malibu cuts off after the idle goes bad whats wrong?

check idle air control by throttle body, might just be carboned up. if so do not push in on pintle or valve. use a good brush to clean valve like a tooth brush. do not put iac in any liquid. check in iac hole for carbon. then replace iac. hope this helps!!

90 model Plymouth acclaim 2.5 motor In park it idles good and when you put it in drive it dies or it doesnt have any power and when you put it in reverse it dies out What could the problem be?

Mass air flow sensor may be bad. Idle may be low caused by leaking or broken vacuum lines or dirty clogged throttle body and air filter. Idle air control valve may be sticking. I would try to first try to put engine in drive after you have removed the air cleaner box and filter. F. Garay

Clean your idle air control valve near the throttle body with electrical parts spray cleaner. It can also be a vacuum leak. This car is 17 years old. Replace all under hood vacuum lines. Replace them one at a time as to not bet confused.

check idle valve control hose for cracks , idle valve to air slider hose for cracks , heat does a number on them. Also check valve cover to intake hose , clean throttle body with maf sensor cleaner or iso alcohal 90%of the time this takes care of the problem I had this on mine, turned out to be the intake manifold gasket needed replacing.


How do you change the fast idle sensor valve on a 1991 Honda Accord EX?

well the fast idle thermo valve ,is on the top of the motor right on the intake manifold,it has two screws on the top, let engine warm up , take the screws out. put finger over and gently push ,with engine running. If no air flow replace valve,or unscrew the plastic top of valve, and with sand paper placed face up on a flat surface sand down bottom of valve. This will let the heat reactive part of the valve shut of sooner blocking the excess air from entering the intake manifold and raising idle.
