Although tons of new IAC are bad, I doubt your problem is constantly bad IAC's. I bet you may have a wiring problem or something else is causing idle problem. Like the notorious intake plenum or a bad EGR or a bad vacuum leak.

i did replace the plenium gasket egr i havent yet and vacume leak not sure but when i have the ac or heater on and i drive and have to put the gas peddle down the heater/ac goes fron the dash vents to the floor vent and i have it set to the dash vent could that be a vacum leak.?
|
No that is just a bad check valve in that line.
|
oh ya and i did check the vacum and it read i have 19psi is that good ?
|
The manual is not specific on a number. But 10 is minimal, IIRC the typical engine is 20.
Also it is not PSI, PSI is for pressure not vacuum. Vacuum is inch of mercury or something like that, I don't know it all. LOL |
does nobody know anything about this on this forum 120 views and nothing
|
Did you check your EGR like I suggested? Don't keep on complaining no one is helping when you don't even do what others suggested to check.
|
yes bought a new one installed it still acting up
|
Did you start checking the wires for good continuity to the PCM?
