Having problems with idle dropping out.

Replace your IAC, $40 and 5 min of work.

Helped mine idle much better.

Some people clean it, but for the $40, just get a new one.

Mine does the same thing if you find a way to fix it let me know.

He just answered. Take the advice

ok....there is obviously something else going on here that people are ignoring or are unaware about, b/c i was having idle issuses and i replaced my IAC and still had the same probs, there are like 5 million threads on this but none really fix this, lots of people have replaced iac and still have probs like me. My car sometimes starts to die when braking hard or pushing in the clutch, so i have to give it gas to keep it goin. seems like it does this for prob 10 min after starting sometimes and then it gets better when car is warmed up. but everyone always says oH...its the IAC but it isnt always the IAC b/c lots of ppl have replaced it and doesnt fix jack...even tried seafoam...helped some....seems to be faster accel. etc. but still having same prob of engine cutting off.

not really sure where to go from here but just wanted to address a prob that lots of ppl seem to be having that everyone automatically blames on the IAC.

Not sure about the cleaning but an IAC should only be 50 bucks from Auto Zone

IAC Cleaning

I cleaned my IAC with good 'ol carb cleaner. Amazing how filthy it was. After cleaning, it worked great solved all of my start up problems.

I'd do it again, certainly beats spending 100+ $'s
