urdrwho Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 The service manual how to says - to clean the IAC pour a Subaru liquid cleaner into the hose; pour until white smoke starts to appear out the tailpipe. The problem is if I disconnect the hose from the plenum to pour anything into the hose, the car stalls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sludgeroo Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 This happens as the vac advance is needed. Just get a helping hand and have someone keep on the throttle to ensure the car wont stall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
urdrwho Posted July 17, 2013 Author Share Posted July 17, 2013 I tried to move the throttle cam while I was trying to do the cleaning but I didn't have enough hands.

urdrwho Posted July 18, 2013 Author Share Posted July 18, 2013 It doesn't even get to the point of pouring before it stalls. Pull that hose from the intake plenum and it stalls. I don't think it should stall like that because it is still getting air into the IAC. Also, you might be pouring too fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kennyfvholla Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 That might be pointing to a problem all on it's own.. Pulling any vacuum line should not cause the car to stall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
urdrwho Posted July 18, 2013 Author Share Posted July 18, 2013 Yay I know. I also noticed that the metal tube that connects to the hose that goes from the bottom of the BPT has no air coming from it. My 95 has air blowing from it. I've gone through the same cleaning process as my 95 but there is still no air. I did it on my own. I stuffed a paper towel between the stop piece and the throttle cam. Without pouring anything in there the idle was up and down, up and down. That might be pointing to a problem all on it's own.. Pulling any vacuum line should not cause the car to stall.
