I'm in need of an Idle Control Valve for the 90/91 V8.
Anybody got one ?
Oh and why do I need one you ask ? I'm going to nominate
myself for what we at work call a "Homer" award. This is a
statue of Homer Simpson that goes to the person who has done
the latest dumb thing.
My dumb thing would be to clean out the ISV with brake parts
cleaner because I was out of Throttle body cleaner. This poofed
the ISV somehow and know my V8 won't idle.... period, let of the gas
and it stalls immediately. Oh and BTW, apparently the brake parts
cleaner stuff made it's way to the O2 sensor I think too. Because
I'm know getting 11mpg instead of 21.
Can you say Bad Day.....
