AnthonyJ350 hey was your Camry cutting off while you was driving or slowing down and was your check engine light on????

[@awos6559]

Clarence Nash I have this issue now. It happens at a low speed, like when o stop at a light, or slow down. It went off at a light. Also, after it has almost shut the car off after I’ve slowed, when I try to accelerate, the gas peddle feel stuck, like it’s blocked or something. So I keep pressing it slightly, and then suddenly it feels soft again and the car is able to accelerate.

I, purchased a new idle control assembly from parts geek online. 96 Toyota celica ST 1.8L, 46.00 Dollars! Also replaced the complete fuel rack with injectors for 87.00 dollars & replaced fuel pump 25.00 dollars. Replaced timing belt & plug wires & plugs & new distributor assembly for 95.00 dollars on Ebay. Purchased the vehicle for five hundred dollars. Towed home did a really good tune up on it. Running like a champ! Excellent video on servicing the idle control valve. Great information thank you!

Glad it worked for you!

[@nachos4018]

Another good tip is when you’re cleaning your throttle body, spray into rag…if you spray directly on butterfly, all the carbon buildup will go down in the hole to the IAC valve and clog it up. If this happens, same thing, don’t spray directly into IAC, clean it with q tips soaked in cleaner. I say this from experience😅

[@nachos4018]

Ps, if you are going to clean it and spray it directly, take it off and turn it upside down

[@AnthonyJ350]

Thanks for the tip!

[@agkile]

Great video! One important thing to notice is there is a small amount of silicone adhesive between the two thus Toyota considers both the electrical and the mechanical sections as one complete piece. If you continue to have problems at idle, consider adding fresh layer of silicone to the one of the matting surfaces an waiting until it has cured. Best of luck everyone

So, quite a bit of oil gets in through my pcv and my intake has carbon buildup all over and when I take off it jerks aggressively and then smooths out in the 3,500 rpm range and up. I think it’s iac and I’ve cleaned it. It also only does it when the car has warmed up.

[@speakfreeley4473]

Live in the UK & own a 1970s Toyota. Different system back then, but with idling issues nontheless. It's an automatic & although not fitted with a rev counter should be at 1500 rpm when starting from cold, then fractionally above 1000 rpm in Park or Neutral, fractionally below 1000 rpm when in gear at full operating temperature in those cases. Instead certain times idle drops to zero when in use warmed up causing it to kill itself stopping at junctions, roundabouts & red lights. Also can tell when it's not right when it runs uneven & lumpy. Would be a good car if idle speed stayed at the mentioned constant level & permanently so.

[@AcexDestroyer]

toyota 4a-fe engine in my 97 prizm. engine boggs when releasing the accelerator, braking/idling at low speeds after accelerating some. seems like that was a similar issue to yours, however i cannot keep my car in park/neutral. it revs up and down constantly. Only when you cold start the car does it idle “normally” for about 45 seconds. Then the engine drops rpms to practically stalling and then starts revving up and down.

[@TheWeirdSide1]

Given that it's called IDLE air control valve, just as your title states, I'm trying to understand what acceleration would have to do with it? Accelerating involves opening up butterfly so there is no need for IAC during.. in simplest operation. On my old rig it's closed during all WARM operation, using coolant temp is how it opens and closes. So on cold start, it's fully open and within a few minutes closes completely. On your's, perhaps the computer uses it to fine tune air intake even at acceleration..must be, right?

[@AnthonyJ350]

There wouldn't be a need for it but if that valve isn't operating properly it may be affecting how the induction system works.

IAC QUESTION; Do you know if the IAC Is responsible for raising the idle speed when you turn the a/c on in an older Camry? I know the computer is involved, but does the IAC do the physical work? My 99 Camry's idle spools up a bit higher, then it settles down to exactly where it was when I press the a/c button to on. What is confusing to me is my previous 98 Corolla maintained a higher idle speed when I pressed the a/c button on to help with the bigger load on the engine. Just not sure if my Camry is supposed to be doing the same thing.

[@AnthonyJ350]

I would bring it to your local trusted mechanic to get their opinion.

[@dbfcrell8300]

@@AnthonyJ350 I appreciate the advice, but I do all my own work to my cars. I'm just inquiring about the IAC to confirm that it works differently than my last Toyota. Thanks.

thizzface Ya I've cleaned the throttle body before but didn't service the Idle control valve. It's seams much better now so it must have been getting stuck all this time. It's hasn't really snowed in my area. It goes to -1 Celsius at night right now.

[@BoOmBaMan]

AnthonyJ350 Noice! That's a good point. I swapped out our Camry egr a few times thinking that was the cause but symptoms just repeated. not cleaning the throttle or IACV was my fault. Great vid bro

AnthonyJ350 I couldn't agree with you more. Although it varies. This remedy applies to most vehicles including our VQs. I asked about snow if you run into issues regarding cold weather.

[@AnthonyJ350]

thizzface It seemed to be having odd start up issues when the temperature dropped. The test will be the next few days when I bring it to work and let it sit outside. An oil catch can on our Z's on the throttle side will help with this.

You would have to hook up an OBD and live data stream it. Your car goes into a different mode when warmed up and uses the sensors to run vs preset tables when cold.

Hello, I have a 2000 camry 2.2l witk 96k miles with high postive long term fuel trim at 20% at idle, short term flucuates between potisve and negative 5% , but at higher rpm the long term fuel trim drops to 5%, but I cannot find a vaccum leak visibly, would a exhaust manifold or intake manifold leak would cuase this? Or would a bad/clogged fuel injector cause this? I also have do NOT have check engine light on. Also I've replaced both 02 sensors, pcv and valvet cover gasket, cleaned throttle body, swapped spark plugs added new denso fuel pump and strainer.

No that's just strain on the engine because the compressor is engaging.

Yes iac is there to bump idle up when ac is on and smooth it out. Also increasesidle over 700rpm tomaintain charging from alternator when you turn on high drain electrical accessories and radiator fans. If your battery goes dead while idling with ac on for example...and alternator is good then its likely that the iac is not working properly. Ive also had cracked vacuum hoses cause poor or high idle
