iac valve leaking

[ek9hatch]

okay just did a 6 bolt swap on a 2nd gen and having idle problems and i hear air leaking where the idle air control valve is and so i pulled the motor and come to find out the gasket that it has or O ring that seals it is done with my only problem is i dont know where i cant get a replacement gasket for it so ive come to dsmtuners for help.

You can always try to salvage one from a spare throttle body if you have one. I ended up using a generic o-ring and just squised it in there but I dont recommend that at all because i broke off an ear on the isc.

I got my isc o-ring at the dealer. Another option is to just eliminate it all the way with a plate, if you have means of controlling your idle. And don't mind race car type engine starts.

Don't remove the ICS. You can remove the FIAV without issues (don't even need a block off plate because it's free to do) but keep the ICS. Just get a new o ring.

I have a spare one out of an old TB and it's still in good condition. You can paypal me the cost of an envelope and stamp and I can send it to you if you'd like.
