yeah you completely missed the thermowax valve thing. its the valve under the t/b. its out of adjustment you fool! lol anyhow take the 2 screws off the end and use a big flat head to tighten the large white thing in the middle.
THIS IS NOT THE IACV.

#1 it will idle ok with out the map sensor. its your FITV , the thing under the Throttle body that needs adjustment.

#2 its ok to cuss, we are all adults here.

#3 PLEASE READ AND CORRECT YOUR SPELLINGS ( i.e. "vaultage": VOLTAGE "ssapoed": supposed? ) again we are all adults here, we cannot help you if we cannot comprehend what you are trying to explain.

#4 welcome to dragva.com
