How do you remove and install idle air control valve assemblies on Buick Regal?

For the purpose of removal and replacement of idle control valve assemblies there is a need to unplug the electrical connection to the valve. To remove the valve, you require an appropriate wrench this being 1 1/4 inches (32mm) in diameter. To install, reverse all these processes while it is recommended that it is done within one and an 1/8 inch (28mm) from the motor housing to the tip of the cone to prevent damage. A new gasket must be had and the ignition switched on and off to allow the idle control valve to adjust. Thus determine if the replacement valve is either of Type 1 which has a collar at the electric terminal end of the valve or the Type 2 that does not have the collar. If the measured distance is more than this distance, for Type 1, apply downward pressure on the valve to reset it; for Type 2, push in the retaining spring while rotating the valve anticlockwise, then release the spring and align the flat end of it with the counterpart part of the valve.

Buick Regal Idle Control Valve

The IACV in Buick Regal cars ensures that the rate of the engine idling is controlled through controlling the airflow that goes round the throttle plate. This electrically operated gadget plays with the engine control unit in order to help the engine to idle and avoid stalling when there are changes in loads. The valve often uses a linear servo motor based on a air throttle that optimises a precise idle speed using a throttle body. In the many years of development, there have been several types of Idle Control Valves used in Buick Regal models, theprimary consideration was made on durability and speed. Although the function is the same the structure may differ as well as the components, for example the motor or actuator. This may create some problems such as fluctuating idle speeds or even stalling and thus might hinder smooth functioning of the Idle Control Valve in Buick Regal vehicles thus calling for regular service including cleaning.

Each OEM Buick Regal Idle Control Valve we offer is competitively priced and comes with the assurance of the manufacturer's warranty for the part.
