Check the fuel control Heated Oxygen Sensor
(HO2S). When monitored on the Tech 2, the HO2S
should respond quickly to different throttle positions. If
it doesn't check for silicon or other contaminates from
fuel or use of improper sealant. The sensors may have
a white powdery coating. Silicon contamination sends
a rich exhaust signal which causes the ECM to
command and excessively lean air/fuel mixture.

THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR
(TPS)

Location
Installed on the throttle body.

Removal Procedure
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Disconnect the TPS connector.
3. Loosen two screws and remove TPS from the
throttle body.




Installation Procedure
1. Temporary tighten the TPS by two screws.
2. Connect a TPS connectors to the TPS.
3. Connect the Tech2 to the vehicle.
4. Connect the negative battery cable.
5. Select "Data Display" with the Tech2.
6. Check the throttle position data and adjust the TPS
position.
7. Tighten two screws.

NOTE:
Verify any DTCs (diagnosis Trouble Code) are not
stored after replacement.



IDLE AIR CONTROL (IAC) VALVE

Location
Installed on the throttle body.

Removal Procedure
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Disconnect the IAC valve connector.
3. Loosen two screws and remove IAC valve from
the throttle body.




Cleaning and Inspection
1. Clean the IAC valve O-ring sealing surface, pintle
valve seat and air passage.
2. Use carburetor cleaner and a parts cleaning brush
to remove carbon deposit.
Do not use a cleaner that contain methyl ethyl
ketone. This is an extremely strong solvent and no
t
necessary for this type of deposit.
3. Shiny spots on the pintle are normal and do no
t
indicate misalignment or a bent pintle shaft.
4. Inspect the IAC valve O-ring for cuts, cracks o
r
distortion.
