ldle Control System
Fast ldle Thermo Valve lA/T)
Description
To prevent erratic running when the engine is warming
up, it is necessary to raise the idle speed. The fast idle
thermo valve is controlled by a thermowax plunger.
When the engine is cold, the engine coolant surround-
ing the thermowax contracts the plunger, allowing addi-
tional air to be bvDassed into the intake manifold so that
the engine idles faster. When the engine reaches operat-
ing temperature. the valve closes, reducing the amount
of air bypassing into the intake manifold.

NOTE: The fast idle thermo valve is factory adjusted; it
should not be disassembled.
1. Remove the intake air duct from the throttle body.
2. Start the engine,
3. Put your finger over the lower port in throttle body,
and make sure that there is air flow with the engine
cold (engine coolant temperature below 86"F, 30'C).
lf there is no air flow, replace the fast idle thermo
valve and retest,

Start the engine. Hold the engine at 3,000 rpm with no
load (in Park or neutral) until the radiator fan comes
on, then let it idle.
Check that the valve is completely closed. lf the valve
is leaking, the idle speed will drop when you cover the
lower pon. Check the engine coolant level and for air
in the engine cooling system {see section 10). lf the
cooling system is OK, replace the fast idle thermo
valve and recheck.
