no thats not it, thats the FITV this is what your looking for



its on the back of the throttle body. there is 2 bolts and you have to un-do the hoses, they will have radiator fluid in them. take it off, spray carb cleaner in it let it sit, rinse and repeat till only clear comes out.

No! That is it. 98 Dx doesnt have an IAC valve. It has a rotary IAC motor. And that is it.

well, lol.. I had a 2g eclipse for 8 years so I always had my screen names lunareklipse but since I have an eg now I had to change it, but ppl always call me lunar, hence lunareg I suppose if one would try to pronounce it without the space there it could sound pretty silly lol.
