  Q: How to replace the Idle Control Valve on Chevrolet Malibu?

  A: One must begin Idle Control Valve replacement by dismounting the throttle control cable bracket from the Throttle Body followed by the removal of the canister purge valve and subsequent disconnection of the Idle Control Valve electrical connector. The process begins by removing two screws which attach the Idle Control Valve and extracting the valve and its o-ring from the unit. The installation of a new valve begins with a confirmation that the pintle reaches a position less than 28 mm (1-1/8 in) from the motor housing. Install the new idle control o-ring before you place the Idle Control Valve into the Throttle Body by tightening its attaching screws to 3 n.m (27 lb in). First connect the electrical connector to the Idle Control Valve while installing the canister purge valve followed by attaching the throttle control cable bracket. To reset the Idle Control Valve users should turn the ignition on followed by off before starting the engine while letting it reach normal operating temperature.
