HipsterDoofus Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 Ok, so I went to NAPA and had my CEL tested, I got two codes. One for my knock sensor, that I already knew about AND P1507. So, I hit the internet, and searched the forums and such. I want to avoid dropping 250+ on my car if I dont have to. Especially seeing as I have to get my car through emissions by Friday night to go and get it registered by Saturday. Now, I havent noticed any hard idling. I do notice my car doesn't like to go into 4th until almost 6k RPM...That cant be good, right? I've seen a lot of people mention replacing the Neutral Safety Switch. Is this a viable option? Others mention just taking the IAC Valve out and cleaning it. Are these both viable options to try before dumping the money on a new IAC Valve? And if so, Is it something me, an inexperienced person with motors can do myself? Is there a chance that because my car is as old as it is, that I should just say **** it and replace it?

BDII Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 buy a new rubber gasket and try cleaning it. Wait till the car is cool to remove it. If that doesn't work troll NASIOC for a used one. The transmission issue shouldn't be related. If you haven't flushed the tranny recently I'd do so. Need forum help?

HipsterDoofus Posted May 8, 2012 Author Share Posted May 8, 2012 Im going to ask a stupid question... Which rubber gasket? And I haven't flushed the tranny since i bought the car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BDII Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 the IAC has a rubber gasket that seals it. It should be less than $5.00 at any dealer. I would do the tranny and rear diff fluid if you haven't in the last 30k. Need forum help? Private Message legGTLT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
