jb9999 0 Posted March 18, 2006 Report Share Posted March 18, 2006 The idle stabalization valve is the connection just above and to the right of the connector that your arrow is pointing to in your photo. Well, I think it is, my car is OBD2 and I know its built in on mine, and yours is OBD1 from the photo, and know they can be changed without changing the complete throttle body. Is that the part you changed? Jim Link to post Share on other sites

johnemerson38 1 Posted March 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 hi i have cleaned my tb and isv wow so much crap came out of it.but i found the problem was the idle muffler thing the little black box behind the tb.was leeking air so gotta fix this and should be fine Link to post Share on other sites
jonnyedinburgh 0 Posted June 19, 2006 Report Share Posted June 19, 2006 Hi, the black box to the rear right of the tb is making a hissing noise on my car, if i sqeeze it when the engine is running the hissing reduces, so i am sure it has a bad leak. what is this box for (my car is obd1) and would a hiss (leak) cause rough idle or acceleration probs? thanks +o( Link to post Share on other sites
johnemerson38 1 Posted June 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2006 its called something like a idle stabilazer muffler and yes mine was leaking air and when i put i new one on it was all fixed it was 26 quid from the stealers Link to post Share on other sites
