cranny Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 the rubber line that goes from the valve cover to the intake? take it off. leave the valve cover port OPEN and plug the hole in the intake. replace your PCV valve as well. first off , make sure you dont have any vacuum leaks. im gonna assume this isnt the problem as you said the problem was progressive. take your throttle body off , under the throttle body , there is a valve with a coolant line going in and comming out of it , this is called the FITV(fast idle thermal valve). on one end , there is a plate with 2-8mm bolts holding it on. remove those and the plate. inside there youl find a white plastic ring outside of what looks like a tampon applicator , hahaha. the tampon applicator should be able to be pushed in and come back spring loaded. the white ring on the outside has 2 dashes one on each side , look like flat head screwdriver head , well use a flathead to tighten that white plastic piece till its tight , righty tighty(clockwise). also , in between the valve cover and the intake manifold , there is 2-12mm bolts holding whats called the IACV(idle air control valve). take the 2 bolts out , remove the 2 wire plug , remove the 2 coolant lines 1 in and 1 out same as the FITV , clean the screen in the gasket. make sure the valve opens and closes by grounding 1 wire of the 2 , and the momentarily touching the other with a 12v wire. should click , and if your holding it youl feel it. you can look in the holes on it and see the plunger move. make sure when sealing it to the intake manny again , that it is sealed good. very important. please for the love of fuking god moderators , sticky this dam post as cleaning FITVIACV somewheres.
