Default is my iacv gone??

well my car has been idling at 1100-1200 rpms lately...so i unplugged the iacv to try and adjust the idle a lil bit, and when i unplugged it my car dropped and was bearly staying on...it went from 1100 to like 200 rpm....does that mean i should just change out my iacv?? because i though its only suppose to drop about 100 rpms when u unplug it

Well you're rpms ARE supposed to drop when you unplug the iac. Possibly there is carbon buildup in your iac. Can you reach the idle adjust on the throttle body without removing iac?

no just clean the iacv and then after you put it on you should be able to adjust your idle screw if it doesnt drop significantly the tension on the throttle cable might be too much
