Re: IACV and FITV

IAC is the idle air control valve.. Its pretty simple, just pop it off and spray it with some MAF cleaner.. Not sure about other.

Re: IACV and FITV

I got some B-12 Chemtool Carb & TB cleaner and followed the steps and so far at 70mph its runnin between 2250 and 2500...like right in the middle of those two marks which seems to be perfect to me. I've stopped and started about 6 times today and still running perfect! Although...rev limiter is still kicking in right at 5K rpm......grrrr. lol
