Q:
does this valve affect the fuel injectors.?\Asked on 4/14/2012 by Anonymous1 answer
CUSTOMER CARE
A:
The idle air control motor or valve is a device in charge of maintaining an acceptable engine idlespeed by letting a controlled amount air passed the throttle plates. This acceptable idle speed is determined by what the ECM considers to be the “DESIRED IDLE”, which is an actual PID on the scan tool. The ECM is constantly comparing the actual idle engine RPM to its internal pre-programmed desired idle speed. The inability of the ECM not to be able to match these two values creates a problem for proper idle operation. Not all scanners provide the desired idle PID, and there are variants of idle air control valves. In essence, they all accomplish the same thing. The IAC motors/valve is directly controlled by the ECM, regardless of the type.Answered on 4/16/2012 by Vincent from AAP

It was low on oil. Has a fuel pump shut-off that stops the engine from running with low/no oil. When I turned right, all the oil moved away from the oil pump, then the engine quit. Put in 3 quarts of oil and it hasn't quit since.Answered on 10/26/2011 by Dick Long from TN.
