Idle control valve

[Rex Kapriellian]

Does anyone have an idle control valve for a csi?

post a picture of the part, I will probably have a used one but I am in the UK, see what comes up nearer to home first, Pat

Removed, sprayed some WD 40. Dunked (probe end) In boiling water then moves to the full closed position. Very slow and needs boiling water.

@sfdon is able to rebuild these to get them working as new

Thanks Frankie, looks like thermostat is the issue and not the sticking!
Love this forum.


P.S. meanwhile, this also works whenwaiting for parts and live in a warm climate. #McGyver

Tape the after market filter leaving an 1/8 to a 1/4 inch of the filter element exposed and this will draw down the idle from 2200 to 800.
