High idle on 940 GLE 16V 900 1992

Dear RobertD,

Hope you're well. Replace the Idle Air Control Valve (IACV) with a new unit, or with a "known good" unit, i.e., an IACV that has been installed in a smooth-running car, that still ran smoothly after installation of that used IACV.

If you don't have a spare "known good" IACV, get two (or three) used IACVs and install them, one after the other. If the car runs smoothly, mark the IACVs "OK" with a date and leave in place one of the used units, that causes the car to idle properly, i.e., about 700 revolutions/minute (RPM).

If you can't find known good IACVs in a salvage yard in your locale, so report.

Hope this helps.

Yours faithfully,

Spook
