I started to replace my IACV but I soon noticed there was a black clip of some kind on one of the bolts.Does anyone know what that might be its the one closest to the engine?
The idle seems faster. About 100 RPM. Does that mean there may be an air leak?
I ain't no expert but this sounds like carbon buildup behind the throttle plates in the throttle body.This should be a lot easier to fix with a good cleaning,but these are not exactly easy to get to either.This is exactly what my dang blasted car has been doing for months! When I start the car from sitting overnight, it runs fine to a point. When I put it in gear and get backed out and go forward, I give it a little gas and it bogs out for a second or two. Then once the car has run for a couple minutes, it runs fine. No misses or anything. What prompted you to replace yours? Aren't there two of them? Can you clean the old ones or do you have to replace them? I've replaced quite a few sensors trying to locate my problem and to no avail. Are they expensive?
