    ICV Service

    Ok, car was sitting in a warehouse for 4 years, won't idle when cold, tends to cut out, once warmed up it runs fine. I assume this is likely the ICV and it needs a blast of carb cleaner to awaken it from hibernation....

    I assume the process is....

    - Remove 2 x Pipes
    - Remove Throttle Cable
    - Remove Connector
    - Remove 4 Torq bolts

    Give good blast with carb cleaner and cotton sticks...

    Reverse the steps above...

    Sound about right ?

    P.

    Give it a good blast with wd40 afterwards as well just to keep the moving parts lubricated

    I assume a torqx allen key is the only thing that will tackle the bottom two bolts on the ICV ? Not much room to get anything else in there !
