See my profile. A manual would really be your best friend NOW and LATER.

Pretend you are an air molecule, go thru the air cleaner, down the hose, and when you start hitting aluminum,

YOU HAVE JUST ENTERED THE THROTTLE BODY, If the throttle plate is closed, (idle) the AIC is the next device you would pass by (or be routed thru it at idle)

AIC is a bypass of the throttle butterfly. It allows enough air to slip thru (bypass--the throttle plate) the computer controls AIC to keep idle right. LOOK for device w/ wires, and sorta a motor made to it.

MAKE SENSE? Please respond if you need more help, I try, me CJ kinda guy!

Love, Turddog
