I am seriously about to replace that accursed idle speed control valve. Maybe even tommorrow if I can get some jackstands. J.T. 2002 Chevrolet Silverado 294ci V8.

(off the top of my head) MAF Sensor (didn't need it, long story) ECT Sensor (didn't need it, long story) Upper 02 Sensor (didn't need it, long story) Vacuum leak (cause of long story on mentioned above) Water pump/Timing belt Switch for air/heater control Left rear turn signal bulb Air Filter I think that's it.

I've owned it since 117,xxx and I've done the timing belt, waterpump, plugs, airfilter, camshaft position sensor, and I'm going to do brakes sometime this fall. Nothing really except normal maintenance, and since I've been able to do the maintenance myself so far it's been cheap.
