Idle air control valve question
It's February.
It's 22 degrees fahrenheit in my driveway.
I'm on the home stretch putting everything back together on headgasket #2 project. M54.
The Idle Air Control valve supposedly just presses into the rubber elbow in the intake manifold. Maybe so on a warm Summer day like last time.
I had a quartz work light shining on the area for half an hour but couldn't get the valve to go where it's supposed to live.
I'm hesitant to get out the heat gun considering the combustibles that reside in the area.
Any ideas?
