ok so i cleaned out my IAC valve or at least i cleaned out what i could. i let it be a little bit then turned it on. and it sounded like my 1971 corvette. it sounded choppy and like it was choking. i let it sit there in idle for liek 5 minutes and it calmed down but then strted again with the noises. the RPMs show it jumps from like 500 to 1500 rpm and liek dances around. i dont know whats wrong but id really like to know if neones had this problem. thanks

Did you disconnect the battery? If not you should so it can adjust.

mine did this about three weeks ago... it would idle real bad... and then almost die.. we had to get a vacuum hose replaced on it

I don't think you want to buy a vacuum leak Make sure that the IAC valve is seated all the way back in and check anything that you might have moved to get to it to make sure it is plugged in or tight or whatever it may need to be



Go ahead and disconnect the battery for 15-20 min to clear the learning to see if that helps any.

Did you make sure to reconnect the wiring harness?
