I just replaced my headgasket and i did everything to spec but now i can't get it timed. actually i have it timed fine just when i hook up the iac the idle goes crazy and if i unplug it the car runs perfectly fine besides the check engine light and the harsh throttle response due to the iac not keeping pressure. i wonder if i damaged it when i cleaned the throttle body with penatrating spray. the only other thing i could thinkn of would be maybe the timing belt slipped a tooth but i can get the idle fine without the iac. so if anyone has had a similar problem or is a tech and ca answer this please help. thanks

when you cleaned it with penatrating spray,, what kind was it?

JSPECEX

not sure is it like fords where the have that film around it and if you use carb cleaner you destroy it. i hope not

i am aiming towards the timing belt bieng wrong but i haven't had time to look yet

use tb cleaner, and clean your iac, if that didn't help clean your fitv under the tb.
