Ok... watched video on dumping sea foam into IAC valve hose, still in place on motor, to clean. Did, sounded better, but idle still surging especially when under load.. fan, AC, lights..... but WTF... there is an adjustment possible on IAC valve! So I simply opened the valve a few degrees until the idle smoothed out under load. It seems to idle a tiny bit high under a no load condition, I might adjust after this settles in for a bit.......
ANYBODY KNOWS WHY THIS ISNT A GOOD IDEA, please let me know! I don’t want to over heat motor with too lean mixture, or whatever else I’m about to mess up!
so far though, the feeling of another subie conquered is FANTASTIC!
Thanks you all for your advice as I stumbled through this.
SUBARU!
