Cleaning and Inspection Procedure

  1. Clean the IAC valve O-ring sealing surface, pintle valve seat, and air passage.
    • Remove excess carbon deposits with a small amount of carburetor cleaner on a parts cleaning brush. Follow any instructions on the cleaner container regarding cleaner usage.
    • DO NOT use a cleaner containing an extremely powerful solvent such as methyl ethyl ketone.
    • Shiny spots on the pintle and seat do not represent a bent or misaligned pintle shaft.
    • If heavy deposits are present in the air passage, remove the throttle body for a complete cleaning. Refer to Throttle Body Assembly Replacement .
  2. IMPORTANT: DO NOT reuse the original O-ring.
  3. Replace the IAC valve O-ring.
