Review on πŸ” Enhanced Search-Engine-Optimized Idle Air Control Valve: Standard Motor Products AC176 by Brian Edwards

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Worked for me, solved my problem

My 1998 Jeep Wrangler TJ would stall at idle sometimes and wouldn't start even on the first take off after landing. It turned until I could smell fuel. When I started the engine and pressed the gas pedal, it started. My old IAC was the culprit and this one fixed it. The jeep should start and accelerate to around 1500 rpm, then settle to 750 rpm after a minute or two of idling. The IAC works by bypassing the throttle by letting air into the engine intake at start because you don't press the gas pedal so I had to press the pedal to start my jeep but everything works great now. I recommend removing the throttle body for replacement and cleaning it while you're there. You will need a torx bit to remove the actual IAC from the TB.
