Important: The hardware used to attach the Throttle Position (TP) sensor and Idle Air Control (IAC) valve is coated with thread-locking adhesive. If these parts are removed for service, inspect the attaching screw threads. There should be enough thread-locking material (adhesive or compound) on the threads to insure proper re-locking. If not, clean the threads and apply Loctite® 262, GM Part No. 1052624, or equivalent, to the threads before reassembly.
Notice: The IAC valve may be damaged if installed with the cone (pintle) extended more than 28 mm (1-1/8 in). Measure the distance that the valve is extended before installing a new valve. The distance from the idle air control valve motor housing to the end of the idle air control valve pintle should be less than 28 mm (1-1/8 in). Manually compress the pintle until the extension is less than 28 mm (1-1/8 in).
Tighten
Tighten the screws to 2.3 N·m (20 lb in).
