Review on Hitachi ABV0042 Idle Control Valve by Frank Rivera

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect fit for the fuel system

It fits my current unit and works very well but I have to say I only used the sensor part which I don't have replaced. the entire assembly, since this part of the sensor no longer had to be replaced. This unit comes with a gasket (seal) which I had to remove to ensure the sensor was working properly. I had an issue with high revs sagging between 1500 and 2000 rpm, but that was due to a broken vacuum hose. After replacing the IAC valve as well as the vacuum hose, my car was completely overhauled and worked great.

Pros
  • Meets OE performance and durability standards for this application
Cons
  • Too long to service
