- Clean the IAC valve O-ring seal area, the pintle valve seat, and the air passage with a suitable fuel system cleaner.


Installation Procedure
Important : If installing a new IAC valve, be sure to replace it with an identical part. The IAC valve pintle shape and diameter are designed for the specific application. Measure the distance between the tip of the IAC valve pintle and the mounting flange. If the distance is greater than 1.1 inches (28 mm), use finger pressure to slowly retract the pintle. The force required to retract the pintle will not damage the IAC valve. The purpose of the 1.1-inch (28-mm) setting is to prevent the IAC pintle from bottoming out on the pintle seat. This 1.1-inch (28-mm) setting is also an adequate setting for controlled idle on a restart.
