How to, Honda 2.4L Idle Air Control Valve, idles Poorly

[@deeznuts_808]

So just an update: Got my new IAC tonite. I put it on and my car is running like a champ. No surge. Thank you for opening up the magnet part and showing the entire way it's suppose to look and function. Mahalo from Hawaii..

[@Kickstartyourcar]

Hi Deenna K, It awesome that your car is running like a champ! This is the reason why I make my entertainment videos, is to help people like you with real car problems. Thank you ( Mahalo ) :)

[@ajd1439]

Hey bro where did you buy your IAC?? Thanks!

[@Kickstartyourcar]

I took it from a junk yard, and i paid something like 15$ Thank you Kickstart your car

[@65gtotrips]

I’ve successfully cleaned the IAC valve in our 2003 Honda CR-V and did the non OBD relearn and the idle worked perfectly.

[@Kickstartyourcar]

GREAT! I'm happy for you, that you fixed your car ! Thanks again for watching this video! Have a great fay

[@Kickstartyourcar]

Hi, you have to start your car and take a ride for about 20 miles! Your computer has to relearn 3 times to reset the computer. Thanks for watching

I have a 2004 Honda CRV-EX. Had it coded today for all 4 ignition coils going out. Those were the only codes. Replaced those and the spark plugs. Im also have an issue with RPM drop out. It starts fine in park, warm or cold, drives fine, even when stopped, but when put back in park after driving, the RPMS fall out and sometimes recovers or sometimes stalls the engine out. Any thoughts?

[@bobiphett4633]

I have this idle problem in my 2006 it started when I was reving it alot in the McDonald's drive threw because these customers made me mad and my car was literally hot going over the H symbol and it started reving up and down. Me and my friend tried buying a new throttle because we thought maybe the sensor wasn't working and it was still making the problem. We tired cleaning the throttle valve with throttle body cleaner but it would still make the problem happen. He sent me this video this morning this is our last option and hopefully the component doesn't move like I saw in your video. If it doesn't move then you have saved me hundreds on buying a new transmission !

Hi i had a similar problem, it was th spool valve

[@bobiphett4633]

@@MH-nu4ip well the problems fixed now. the guy I bought it from fixed it cause it was litteraly a pain to find out the cars problem 🤦🏻‍♂ i think it had to do with the senors. I had to buy a new accelarator which was like 2 bills 😤 im not sure. But now the car alternators out so the car will not start what so ever. When I try to start the car. It just doesn't make a single sound like its just silent. No clicking or anything. I just bought a new battery for my daily car so im going to test it on this one and see if its really the alternator. The older battery before the new one, I had put in this car and it started, I left it on for a few minutes and the car just turned off and died so I feel like it is the alternator.

Is this the same part and Will this work for a 2009 honda crv 2.4L

[@kkampy4052]

You don't have to drain the coolant, you will only lose a bit. You can use the throttle body bolts to plug the lines.

[@Kickstartyourcar]

Thanks K Kampy, Next time that's what I'll do that. Thank ypu for watching😀. Max ofalltrades

Is there a o ring that goes in between the IAC and the black part with the magnetic rotating thing? When I took mine apart I noticed a black o ring but not sure where it came from

[@1sttobylopez]

What if it only idles rough when you have the *AC* on a cold start

[@Kickstartyourcar]

Thank you for watching this entertainment video and here is a few causes for your car. The engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor The intake air temperature (IAT) sensor The cold-start injector The ignition coil(s) Internal coolant leaks O-ring gaskets on the intake manifold

Pls help... Surging Idle,..1991 Honda Accord EX, 4 Dr Sedan, FWD, ... I have recently refurbished most parts in Engine area, @ Professional Mechanical Shop, included below: However, aft changing these, Idle speed was surging, 1k-2K in Neutral, and surging forward at stop signs in Drive, (so had to put in Neutral at Traffic lights, annoying ..).. then changed IACV twice, AND 3 mechanics can't figure out what is wrong even after adj idle via distributor,... they have cleaned IAC also,.. Disabling IAC w Solenoid has bypassed this problem,,, I have videos, of idle speed with IAC plugged in (Surging ), and w/o plugging it in (no Surging,..),... The following were changed bef I had this problem Spark Plugs, Wires, Alternator, Starter, Belts,... Fuel Tank, Fuel Pump, some Fuel & oil Lines,.. Radiator, Condenser, Hoses, Rad Cap,.. Timing Belt & Water Pump, Tensioners Oil Pan & Gasket, Car was parked for few yrs during Covid, but before that, the Car used to drive really well, high speed was smooth, 100-120-140++ kph easy,.. smooth, quiet, normal Idle,... altho Fuel Tank & Rad had started to leak, rusting, so had bought another car, and parked this one,.. Three (3) diff experienced Mechanics have played with IAC, and have changed both IAC valves (one w Solenoid was changed 2x!), as was Fast Idle Valve, but no luck. Currently, and even before these repairs, with IAC UNPLUGGED, car feels it has enough power, and has v good acceleration for a 23 yr old car, No sputtering ! (==> so NO vacuum leak?) & (NO defective Airflow sensor?),... I have seen videos of surging problems on KZbin,.. and if anyone has any more suggestions,.. Thnx Az_99

[@Kickstartyourcar]

Hi az_99, the iac parts were replace by oem parts ?

[@Kickstartyourcar]

Also check if you have air leaks on all rubber parts including the air box and the rubber air tube part that connects to the throttle body

[@mambrinox]

The bolts are not torx, but 5-point. That is why you could not remove them with torx wrench.

[@Kickstartyourcar]

Big Thanks O Pusete

[@BlackForceMechanics]

What's the proper name of the socket? I can't find it

[@AcerArtsOfficial]

Dont drain all the coolant? It really doesnt even leak, and if it did just put a bolt or spare spark plug in it

[@Kickstartyourcar]

Hi Chris I forgot to mention in my video that I was replacing to old coolant ( flush ), But thank you for the comment, next time I'll take your advice :)

[@noname-gp6hk]

Those are not philips screws. They look like philips screws but they are not. They are JIS screws, and philips screwdrivers cam out and strip them. You need a set of JIS screwdrivers, they don't strip on these when you use the right tool.

[@Kickstartyourcar]

Thanks for the constructive comment, and yes I'll get my hands on a JIS set. Thank you again and have a nice day

HI, Danilo, maybe your IAC does not working anymore! If it turne freely or the magnet maybe is not working anymore, and take a peek at your vaccum line! And the part from the air box to the throttle body!
