It was an electrical load sensor, my bad.
Apply vacuum to the EVAP canister purge valve from the intake manifold side. If it holds a vacuum check valve clearances, if clearances are good replace injectors. If it does not hold a vacuum replace EVAP canister purge valve.

 

Straight from the manual pg. 318: Block both upper and lower ports in the throttle body with your fingers while engine is running. Does your engine stall? Yes- replace IAC valve. No-Check for vacuum leaks, test the throttle body section 11-122

 

awesome good find. this was frustrating for me so i know it must be for you guys

 

Not sure what you mean by "It was an electrical load sensor, my bad."

Also wondering about this EVAP topic - wondering how you got there?

 

I mentioned at the top of the page that I thought that the map sensor was tied to another load sensor but what I saw was just and electrical load sensor.

EVAP check is for rich condition DTC P0172( I think ) which my car pulled just before I replaced my MAP my MIL actually came on before I replaced the map so I was quick to check it to see what it was. I might check it to see whats up.

 

I may take a look at the evap kit when I get a chance. Gonna be really tied up the next 10 days and the car will be sleeping in the garage till then.

 

Money! haha gonna try that this afternoon. Good find, hopefully it will work

 

Well I plugged the holes inside the throttle body and my car died. Gonna swap it out this weekend and see what that gets me. Thanks again for the find.

 

Mine died also - again, I am not sure why this would mean the IAC is bad since those two holes are the only place the manifold gets air for the car to idle. Cut of all air and car will not idle.

I am replacing my IAC anyways since I have resigned myself to throwing money at the problem due to the information vacuum regarding this issue. I will be checking my valve clearances sometime in the coming week, replacing the IAC, and if that does not work I will be bringing to a Haitian Voodoo Doctor for treatment.

 

^William, I just had a buddy of mine try this on his s2k. He said that when he plugged the holes in the TB his car did not die. Im not sure either but its gotta lead to something. Hope this helps.
