daeron Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 try removing the throttle body from the manifold, but be warned that this MAY necessitate replacing the gasket there.. I think mine actually broke at one point, but it was a clean break, so I just re used it anyhow. The gasket was kinda stuck in place, and when I put it together and ran it I didn't hear any vacuum leak right where it broke, so I think I'm OK.. It has run well for a WHILE since this happened, so I'm satisfied its OK... In any case, gasket or no, it makes removing the IAC much simpler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hooziewhatsit Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 vice-grips work great to break the screws loose. After that you can usually get them by hand. -Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I told this guy whats wrong with the car and he's possibly interested. If he doesnt come by friday, the car is going to a junkyard. Anyone need anything from the car? Hubcaps?
