Definitely not Gunn Acura, or Gunn Honda - they charge list price for everything! Are you sure you need a new one? Sometimes they can be cleaned with brake parts cleaner.

i gave it another shot of carb cleaner just now. im gonna let it soak for about an hour then resoak it and spray the crap out with a can of compressed air i have. the allen screw on the outside is completely stripped and i cannot adjust it further. im going to try some creative methods to tighten/loosen it.

the one i swapped in earlier this evening adjusted just fine, so i know somethings up with mine.

Sounds like replacing it is your most trouble free option. I'd check online, theres several parts retailers that will give you a better price if you don't mind waiting for it.

I've had to buy a few things locally, Gunn Acura and Honda both wanted list for everything! Never would give me any sort of a break, so I only go there if its absolutely necessary that I have the part right then and there. You might ask Advance or Pep boys, they might be able to get an IACV as well. Good luck!

lm going to give it one last shot with carb cleaner and see if that helps. the last round of carb cleaner h elped alot. if i feather the gas, itll eventually idle normally at a stop light.

so i think one last shot (maybe 3rd times a charm?) of carb cleaner for this part. if it doesnt work, im going to look online for one... and if i cant locate one, buy it new for 180 from honda parts unlimited.
