Re: Stuck

["Robert Rooney" <dmcvegas@xxxx>]

After craking open my idle speed unit, I discovered that between the 
impeller & air flow chamber there is no seal what so ever. The 
winding appeared to be fine, but on the brush above there was a HUGE 
amount of carbon build up. Remember, the Idle Speed Regulator is not 
a motor in the regular sense, it's a slide valve. It rotates back and 
forth, it does not "spin" like a regular motor. So if you remove the 
unit and jiggle it in your hand, if it does not sping 360 degrees, 
this doesn't mean that it's broken (there's a rod in the chamber to 
limit the valves movement. Hope this helps you trouble shooting!
