Inline 5cyl Petrol engine tech / Bad idle

« on: May 20, 2015, 05:08:52 am »

Having a problem with the idle. About a month or two ago the van would idle fine until it got warm so it told me the o2 sensor. Because the the van runs completely off of the iac valve(idle air control) until it warms up to 150-170 coolant temp and then the o2 sensor kicks on. But it wouldn't. So I changed the o2 sensor and boom problem fixed! But now I have the completely opposite problem. The van won't idle until it warms up and the o2 sensor is on. I have to force the idle or it will die. So I thought maybe the iac valve is bad, so I ordered a used one from Adam Ford off of the same year van that is a parts van. Put It on, and same problem. Anyone have an ideas? Could both the iac valves be bad? Most things online point towards that, very annoying problem. Thanks so much.

Here is checking oil pressure on a 5cly 2.5ltr from the Bentley manual should give you a pretty good idea.
