Worked on this car again today. I had a very rewarding day with it.
The new battery I put in a couple weeks ago. It has the right battery in it now. The one I pulled out was too small.
Old EGR valve.
New EGR valve installed.
Removed IACV. Screen was completely clogged.
IACV cleaned.
I also pulled the throttle body off, cleaned it and replaced the gasket. No pics. Not much to see.
It comes up on high idle when it's cold now without an erratic idle. Just like it should. And once it starts warming up it idles down perfectly. I was very happy to hear it start up and go through the idle stages perfectly. Once warm it idles at 900rpm.
I can hear it run just a little rough at idle once completely warm. I know it needs an ignition tune up and I'm sure it will run smoother after. Not that it's that bad just that I notice. You really have to listen for it. So an ignition system service is coming up soon.
