Oldsmobile 25527077 Valve Kit, Idle Air Control (Throttle Body)

For the purpose of removal and replacement of idle control valve assemblies there is a need to unplug the electrical connection to the valve. To remove the valve, you require an appropriate wrench this being 1 1/4 inches (32mm) in diameter. To install, reverse all these processes while it is recommended that it is done within one and an 1/8 inch (28mm) from the motor housing to the tip of the cone to prevent damage. A new gasket must be had and the ignition switched on and off to allow the idle control valve to adjust. Thus determine if the replacement valve is either of Type 1 which has a collar at the electric terminal end of the valve or the Type 2 that does not have the collar. If the measured distance is more than this distance, for Type 1, apply downward pressure on the valve to reset it; for Type 2, push in the retaining spring while rotating the valve anticlockwise, then release the spring and align the flat end of it with the counterpart part of the valve.

During installation, reverse the removal steps and ensure to measure the extended distance of the valve from the motor housing to the end of the cone, which should not exceed 1 1/8 inches (28mm) to avoid potential damage.

No, the fuel injector cannot be serviced and must be replaced if it's malfunctioning.

The IAC system works by allowing a controlled amount of air to bypass the throttle blade via the IAC valve.

To maintain the IAC valve, you should unplug its electrical connector, remove the IAC valve mounting screws, replace the O-ring, and clean the IAC valve seating surfaces. Additionally, you should measure the distance between the valve pintle tip and the flange mounting surface.

The camshaft position sensor, located under the distributor cap, provides cylinder identification to the PCM and is not directly involved in the ignition process.

To maintain the TPS, you should remove it and reinstall it on the throttle body, ensuring alignment with the TPS lever and securing it with attaching screws and retainers.

The throttle valve controls air flow, and additional air is regulated by the Idle Air Control (IAC) valve.

The idle speed of the engine is controlled by the Idle Air Control (IAC) valve.

Before installing a new IAC valve, measure the distance from the tip of the pintle to the mounting flange and adjust it if necessary. Install a new O-ring, lubricate it, and securely tighten the valve.

Unplug the connector, remove the valve, and discard the old gasket, ensuring the new one seals properly. Adjust the pintle as necessary before reinstalling.
