Okay, my 2001 X Sport has been having some cold start rough idle issues within the past month. I have determined that a good first step would be to replace the IAC valve to see if this fixes my idle issues. I purchased the OEM valve, disconnected the battery for a hour (make sure the sensor memory was cleared) and replaced the IAC valve. The truck started great and I drove it around in city traffic (Downtown Chicago) for a half hour and parked it in a garage. It sat in the garage for about 6 hours and when I went to start it it would not idle at all. The truck would backfire and die below 1000 RPMS. I had to drive it home with two feet reving it at the stop signs so it would not die. Once I got home I put the old IAC valve back in and the truck is running fine (still the old rough idle). Did I do something wrong with the valve replacement? Do I have to bring the truck to the dealer to reset the idle computer memory? Please help!
TIA
