Hey guys,
I'm still having the same cold idle problems - sluggish throttle response and the rpm's dip really low upon letting off the throttle. I've replaced many sensors, but today I spent some time on the ICV:
Resistance is about 38 on the outer two prongs, about 18 - 20 for the centre and either end - the haynes calls for 40 and 20, so thats good.
Voltage on the leads; the haynes calls for about 10 on the centre prong, mine shows 4.xx and 6.xx, is that way too low?
Now here's the thing, I became so convinced it's the ICV because I started the car (problem was there) and then unplugged the harness to the valve and practically nothing, if anything at all changed, and the manual says it's supposed to rev up to about 2000 rpm when you unplug it, which makes sense since the valve will just stay open.
Now with that in mind, but with my voltage and resistance readings, what do you guys figure? Can the valve be faulty but still show proper resistance readings?
Thanks so much, any input is really helpful
