Ok so heres what I have so far, I fired the car up and I have a serious idle surge issue goin on, it jumps from a near stall up to about 3000 rpms then drops back to an idle around 1000 rpm and almost like clockwork.
I attempted to remove the IAB sensor, managed to get the top bolt off but I cant seem to get a grip on the lower bolt, I rotated the IAb unit toward teh firewall as far as I could but I still cant get hold of the bolt to break it loose without the allen wrench slipping. any tricks to getting this thing off?
I removed the intake and cleaned the TB as best i could with carb cleaner, reconnected everything and it held about 1000 rpm idle for maybe 5 mins before it started the surge again.
after getting thoroughly PO'd I gave up on the engine for awhile and started messing with the moonroof, when i hit the switch I could hear the relay behind the glove box clicking, I pulled the wires from the relay and tried just reinstalling them but still no go the motor wont kick on. bad relay or bad motor?
