Is the IMRC the silver rectangular box under the black plastic cover and above the middle spark plug? The silver box I am talking about is attached by three screws.

Thanks.
I replaced my ignition wires yesterday and had to remove the IMRC to get to the front wires. When I removed it and move it, I heard something like a marble moving around inside. When I shook it, the marble sound continued to move back and forth. Is that normal?
What is the IMRC supposed to do?

IMRC = Intake Manifold Runner Control
ie. it controls the opening of the secondary butterflies in the lower intake manifold.
Without a functional one, you won't get much power above 4K rpms.

If you shake the IMRC, is it supposed to sound like something is moving inside?
