CES light comes maybe once every 3 weeks but it’s a bad O2 sensor behind one of the cats. Maybe a dumb question but what does IACV stand for?

Idle Air Control Valve

Lmao. So I sprayed throttle body cleaner on my intake gaskets and didn’t notice anything till I hit one spot and instead of the idle increasing it sounded like the idle slightly decreased like it was going to stall but not enough to stall it

not sure if tb cleaner is flammable, but if you spray brake cleaner at the area and it bogs again thats your vac leak.

carb cleaner or starting fluid will make the idle jump up.

Well it was carb/throttle body cleaner but bogged down when I sprayed it. I’m going to clean out the throttle body tomorrow after work. I’m not going to be able to test out the bottle of heet I got and the clean throttle body until next Thursday morning because it’s been fairly warm here lately, but I’ll really be testing it because it’s going to go down to 12° Next Wednesday night

Now the difference in price is 34 cents per gallon...(87 to 91)

.34 x 27 gallons= 9.18 difference every tank

My mpg gos from 13.5 to 14.5/8 using 87 to 91... avg 1 mpg... so 27 extra miles= roughly 2 gallons of gas= $4.66... 9.18 - 4.66= roughly 4.50 more per tank after adding in extra miles awarded...$ 4.50 more every 400 miles, I pass by the coffee shop once a week to make up for it..

take a lighter to the spray your using, if it flames up it should raise the idle, if it dont burn it will cause that bog. you can also use propane. it will also make the idle jump up.

Lol at first I had a brain fart and thought you were telling me to light my engine on fire after I sprayed itbut yeah that’s a good idea. Thanks
