Default ISV

Mine simply screws up the idle characteristics. Sometimes the idle speed won't drop below 1600, and if I tap on it with a wrench it loosens up and hits about 900. Supposedly you can hit it with some lubricant inside, but not sure what that does to the electric motor in there.

Default Mine needed replacement last winter and...

the symptoms were severe hesitation and balking during acceleration (especially on cold days). The symptoms disappeared after about 15 min. of warm-up. I did not experience any idle problems, oddly enough.

Do you know if there is a way to test it? I kinda think mine may be sticking, how much did it set you back?
