My rpm drops a tiny bit at stops so I put it in neutral or park and the idle stays normal.

Trying this today! All of a sudden my car just started jolting when i turned it on to warm up while i went to the restroom. When i got back it was doing it and i was worried your video put a smile on my face because now i know what i need to do

That's great! Good luck, I hope it solves things!

Just did this to my 89 lincoln TC . Upon acclerating from a dead stop, the CEL would flash, engine would hesitate briefly then go. Just about every stop. After cleaning and reinstalling my IAC, the CEL was doing its thing still for a couple miles but finally stopped and hasnt returned and the idle is much much better. Thank you For this video.

I just bought a 2001 mustang gt with101k miles. I saw the tensioner pulley hesitate on the test drive. i replaced the two idler pulleys and the tensioner pulley. left the old belt alone. now My idle darts. it is better than before. I can clean the IAC. what about plugs? bought new air filter have to replace that. could it be a vacuum leak? thx .

My car actually starts up climbs idle a few times stays at 1500 at idle then drops to maybe 1.1k rpm it also sounds like it’s cammed sometimes it will start chopping and rpm’s will be jumping from 700 to 400 back to 7 so on so forth until it either catches itself or dies

I will right now!!!! I hate to sound cheap … the auto parts store wanted $115 & tax for the part . I followed your directions now it works & it gives me time to order it online for $41 by the same manufacturer.

Whats the difference between this and the maf sensor?

@faithnoman2635

2 жыл бұрын

This controls the air for idle. The MAF sensor reads the incoming air to determine what the computer wants to do with air/fuel ratio and things like the idle air control valve.

My car has the idle air control valve check engine light even after replacing it with a brand new one. The hanging rpms went away but it idles at around 500-600 rpms sometimes, anyone know what might be wrong ?

My Valve does not move ?

Hi, I have a 2003 Ford Mustang GT with 30,000 miles. It has been driven intermittently for the past 15ish years until recently. It's now my daily driver, but just recently, the Check Engine light came on and the RPMs fluctuate after a cold start. Do you think this could be due to a faulty IAC Valve? Any advice would be a major help. Thank you!

IAC is related to air in engine if u feel your car running smoothly then its not the problem. Check engine go to computer check will show u the problems

@DarkPony4.6

Look up the mustang hidden feature it will show you how to look at the diagnostic codes

Can this still be the symptoms if when i turn on my car it turns off in less then a secon and it makes a air pshhh noise and if it only runs if i have to keep my foot on the gas for a bit before i can let go and it idles by it self ?

@TutorialGenius

Could also be a vacuum leak! Could be many things really. My best advise to you is to take it to a shop and get a diagnosis (Many of them offer free visual inspection) When you get the diagnosis, tip the guy a couple of bucks if hes nice, then go home start learning how to fix the problem yourself

So the old valve idled pretty low but never stalled. I installed the new sensor and it's actually stalling now

I hope this doesn't need to be done often.

What about when you are driving and put it in neutral and it dies?? I have the exact same car gt mustang please help. Check engine light is on but it doesn't stall at idle. Just when i put it in neutral coasting? Maybe its the iac?

If you have a check engine light, then pull the codes. There is no sense in guessing what the problem is. You can rent the tools for free from many auto stores.

I did it was the icv idler control valve I cleaned it out with some brake cleaner. The gasket was little worn but still good. It was driving absolutely fine for about 3 weeks after that, now I'm experiencing a new problem. Now "sometimes " when I'm accelerating it studders when I'm going from 1000 rpm to around 2000 rpm. After 2000 it's just fine.. sounds great feels great but then I'll shift into second and it dips below 2000 (around 1500 rpm) and starts to studder a bit until I hit 2000 rpm again... whats going on??

@TutorialGenius

It wouldn't hurt anything. I'm not sure if it's cleaning ability is better and it's probably more expensive (as its safe on plastic), but if it's all you have, you can give it a shot

Could this trigger a P0172 code

@TutorialGenius

What have you tried? I'd probably clean the mass airflow sensor and air filter first, super easy to check

I replaced my IAC completely cause I cleaned my old one and it did boring and new one is doing the same thing

It could be something else, like a vacuum leak. What diagnosis steps did you take before you thought it was the IAC?
