And BTW Brad, the moose isn't killed by the IAC alone.. You have to install the special hose along with it.. I have installed that hose.. Which I took off of a 00' Cougar.. and I noticed no difference.. But I never had the moose since I've owned it... 57,000 miles later and still no moose. I don't think I'm that lucky.. So it must be the maintenance that I do to the engine that keeps it away. (Always clean the throttle body once a year!!!!!) A big must.. this will cause the moose.. I have cured a couple of cars with the moose by doing this..
Lincolns have the same moose problem in the 4.6L.. They install what they cal "bagpipes" and a new IAC to correct the problem.. I've seen that a hundred times so far.. But really it's coming from the fact theat the EGR passages get clogged up and the throttle bodies get coated with sludge.. (Hey FORDTECH!!! would you agree??) anyhow.. This is just something I put up here as an advisory.. Everyone can do what they please... I'm ASE Certified and also Factory Certified... But you won't find me ever in one of my posts bragging about it.. And I'm not going to now. This is just personal experience stuff and things I've seen in the field that I talk about.
