94 LT1 IAC install
Can some one please give me some advice on what I am in for? The instructions say I need to adjust the new one to a curt. length. If the old one is bad does that mean its not the right length. I don't know first time. the instructions are very vage.

Depress accelerator slightly
Start engine, then release accelerator pedal, run engine for 5 seconds
Turn ignition "OFF" for ten seconds
Restart engine and check for proper idle operation
It is NOT recommended to to push or pull on the pintle of an IAC that has been in service. The force required can damage the threads on the worm drive. Also, do not soak the IAC in any liquid cleaner or solvent, as damage may result. When installing a new IAC, you may move the pintle to match the measurement of the old one. The force required to move a NEW valve will not cause damage to it. Use engine oil to lubricate the o-ring. Tighten attaching screws to 27 lb. in.
Note that the 1993 IAC has a square electrical connector and the valve screws into the throttle body, instead of being held on by screws like those of later years.
Ok but the new Iac will not move. Is this right? I am hopeing that it will adjust like it says up top. Will this happen?
