cleaning the iac

[fyremanpat]

locating it and pulling it off

not the worst ive ever seen

hard to see the carbon build up..but its the

after carb cleaner and a steel brush

and while i was there as might as well clean the intake

NOW its smooth as butter

 

[puckhead]

What is the iac? and how did you clean the intake? I would be afriad of stuff falling into the open intake. or should I not worry about it

 

[fyremanpat]

just use carb cleaner. and unless you have massive chunks of carbon you will be fine... Idle Air Control valve

Sweet thanks dude, gonna have to try this out

 

[fyremanpat]

[puckhead]

[Mr.Hoe]

Thanks man for the way but this IAC from which model??

 

[Miami-Yukon]

Wow, first smooth as MARGARINE with the egr and now smooth as BUTTER with the iac ..... LOL

Just meesing with you , great write ups though... I recently replaced my motor and it still runs kinda ruff, maybe cleaning these two things will help....

Thanks

Gonna clean this and the EGR this spring for sure. She's got 150k+ miles and I'm sure neather has ever been cleaned.

Be careful reinstalling this thing. I broke one of the screws when I put it back in.

I did this and the egr valve today. It works fine.

Although for future reference to anyone else;
The IAC is the one on the right. The one on the left is the TPS. Ask me how I know...
