My car has 101,000 miles. I had to replace the IAC a few years ago around 75,000 miles. (Ford part $85).
Today the car stalled when I depressed the clutch and slowed fairly quick to make a turn. I was really surprised. Started back up and drove 1/4 mile back home no problem.
So, I took it out for a test ride an hour later. Seems like when I begin to stop, the idle speed drops to 400-500 rpms and then comes back to about 700. A few times it was low enough to almost stall. This behavior started rather suddenly.
When my 1st IAC went, it went fast. Couldn't keep the car running w/o holding down the clutch & giving it gas.
What the heck can this be? Should I do nothing yet and wait for the problem to become a bit worse/frequent? What other parts could effect the idle?
Pep Boys has the IAC for $50, not bad!
Any advice here would be appreciated. Thanks.
