I'm thinking about replacing the Idle Control Valve. I know that some people changed their Purge Valve on the gas tank. But to my opinion, the Purge Valve would cure if the car is vapor locked. Meaning that would either start and dies or it won't start at all. The ICV is the onlything that points out at the problem that most of us are having with the erratic idle and stalling at a stop. Which mine is doing. And I'm not having any codes.
