I just went to get my car diagnosed by my uncle and after looking for the needle in the hay stack we finnaly found that is was not the IAC and it was the intake mainafold gasket leakin. 1 Question how long , complicated and whats involed in changing it out.Or should I fork over 80 bucks and take it like a man.

It's a nuts-and-bolts job, but time consuming. You can probably pull it out, replace the gasket, and have it running again in an afternoon.

sure the pcv valve didnt come unplugged? that'll do it too.

No Its not the pcv (I wish it was somthing that simple)But its looking like its going to be a pain in the arse. Any suggestions or a simpler way I can do it? Or special tools for the job?

the only problem I had when changing the tb, was the damn little star (torxx) bolts that hold a sensor in I believe, anyways those little suckers are in there tight! I broke of one bit and twisted another trying to get them off. finally had to drill them out. hehe.
