91 legacy two terminal IAC

Featured Replies

Can anyone tell me a resistance specification for thee old manual trans two terminal IAC?  Correct me if I'm wrong but from what I understand in '92 the IAC superseded  to a three terminal plug?  Unfortunately I only have a '92 FSM and can only find the resistance values for the three terminal IAC

 

Any light shed on the subject would be greatly appreciated!

 

And while I'm at it, what would be the best way to test the Ignitor Module?

 

Thanks in advance!

Can someone post a link to the thread that specifically goes through the process of cleaning the IAC valve that I read so much about but can never seem to find?  I want to make sure I get it right or at least know if the part is shot.  Had a low idle speed at about 100rpm but I knew that the timing was off so i wasn't sure if the low idle speed was related.  I just relaced the timing belt, water pump, idlers and such. Idle speed is still at 100, won't idle on it's own until normal OP temp is reached.  I did the whole unplug the IAC test to see if the idle speed drops (in this case kills the car) but no change what so ever and IAC resistance is within spec so it functions electrically.  Not throwing any codes anymore after  resetting the timing and replacing the timing belt.  So idle issue aside everything is in working order and drives like it should.  Any ideas or links to previous posts, for I'm sure I ain't the only one to ask the question...WTF?!?!

 

Thanks in advance

Whoa whoa whoa, slow down you guys that is way to much info all at once!

Sorry--for some reason I can't paste a link in here!  So try this:

 

Go to advanced search and in "find words" enter:   Location Of Idle Air Control (?)

For "find author" enter:  hklaine

For "find in forum" choose:  Newer Generation Forum, 1990 to Present

Then search.

 

Hope this helps!
