IAC Motor
How much can a bad iac motor effect performance, and how can you tell if one is bad? I have a 2000 z28 with the mods in my sig and when you rev the car in park or neutral it sometimes is slow to return to idle. I was curious if this was all in the tune or the iac motor could be bad or you guys could send me in the right direction as far as figuring out what is causing this. Also when i do a burnout or blip the throttle real quick it has trouble getting the idle figured back out and wants to die sometimes and fall below idle. Let me know what you guys think.
thanks.
thanks.

I too have basically the same problem, but it's not too terrible once I've driven the car a few times. If I unplug the battery for a while and then drive it, man does it have a rough time finding the idle. Maybe the PCM relearns the fuel trims to compensate or something; that's just my uneducated opinion.
I've been told that I have an air leak (???), but replaced the intake gaskets and checked all the vaccum lines to no avail. However, in a lil over 2 weeks I'll be getting my rebate back from college (Thank God for scholarships), and I'll be getting the LS6 intake. I mean, I don't really see how the intake could be bad, but I dunno. Can't hurt to upgrade Hopefully y'all will have some responses more knowledgable than mine before then.

Soo... I did as Hi-Po said and scanned the car while driving... When I 1st turned her on and the ECT was ~160 the IAC Position was ~35. When the ECT ~195, the IAC Position at idle would dip down to 8, then back up to ~35, and after driving for a lil while it would pretty much be around 0 when at idle...
When I turn the AC on the IAC Position jumped up to around 70, but then settled around 35.
I'm not sure what to make of it, other than it clearly shows something is wrong if it's sposed to be between 45-60. I took the IAC Valve out of the throttle body and cleaned a decent amount of black deposits off of it, but that didn't seem to make a difference.
I attached my HP Tuners scan. If I need to scan again with different parameters, or anything like that, plz let me know. Any help is appreciated!
PS It's a 98 LS1, stock except for the few mods in the sig
