System Description
The idle speed ot lhe engine is controlled by the ldle Air Control {lAC) Valve.
The valve changes the amount ot air bypassing into the intake manifold in response to electric current controlled by the
ECM. When the IAC Valve is activated, the valve opens to maintain the proper idle speed.

Fast ldle Thermo Valve
DEscliptlon
To prevent erratic running when the engine is warming
up, it is n€cessary to raise the idle speed. The fast idle
thermo valve is controlled by a thermowax plunger, When
the engine is cold. the engine coolant su.rounding the
thermowax contracts the plunger, allowing additional air
to be bypassed into the intake manifold so that the en-
gine idlss taster. When the engine reaches operating tem-
peratur€, the valve closss, reducing the amount of air
bypassing into the manifold.
