#1: ICV Help from anyone with experience! Author: MrrNoName, Location: UKPosted: Mon Apr 04, 2011 9:15 am ---- Hi, ive taken my idle control valve off to clean it as i think its causing me a rev problem.
anyway, ive got it out and am cleaning it but the little piston wont move, its locked in a position, should I be able to move it in and out manually?
there is a metal sleeve over the piston thing the I can push down but it springs back out to cover the piston thing up again as soon as I let go,
should it be locked in this position or freely work in and out-able if, sorry thats the only way i know how to describe it haha
thanks for any help in advance, MrrNoName

Author: MrrNoName, Location: UKPosted: Mon Apr 04, 2011 10:01 am ---- yeh sprayed it to death lol, i can move it in and out now, its extremely stiff though, i was wondering if it should be like this to move by hand or if it should move freely and easily?
if it should not be this stiff thats probably the problem lol!
