my opinion on this part is replace it and its gasket. there have been reports of mixed results from cleaning, why go thru all those steps and learn that you still have a problem? with replacement, you're up & running in no time. just be very careful when tightening those two bolts, they can snap easily.



I agree that cleaning doesn't always work (happened to me) but I would still give it a shot, as a replacement is around $60. The labor is minimal just to pull of the IAC and clean it, so its not like you're spending hours for nothing. In my case cleaning improved things for a month or so, but eventually the issues came back.
