i kinda tried to search and found how to clean it remove it yada yada but diagnosis seems to be guessing its bad and replacing/cleaning it

well

i figure its the source of my problem - it seems to be ok via the multimeter test - its not horrible dirty and i cleaned the terminals - however when i plug the plug in it idles at 2k when i unplug it it idles at 1k so i am guessing it is bad or is this somethign else that i am missing?

how bad is it to just leave it unplugged?

when i turn on the ac the rpms still rise which i thought was the things purpose - so i am confused?

 

All of the diagnostic procedures are here: DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES

I believe Page #156 will have the specific procedure for the IACV.

Rizzzzzzzz'sssssss link page has the FSM and many more good bits of info.
