no I did not actually remove it, but I will. I have to get that hex bit from my father in law. But just to make sure, you loosen the 1 hex screw, and pull the whole thing off the top right? Also, how do you take the IAC off? I thought for sure as much as it's talked about on this site there would be a how-to, but there's not. Thank you again.


Removing the IAC valve isn't so easy. Hope you've got small hands. There are two bolts (10mm I believe, even though the link mentions 8mm). Word of advise - get the bottom bolt off first before taking off the top one.

Personally, cleaning the IAC valve didn't help me - I think I need to do a thorough cleaning of the TB and MAF. Good luck.
