Re: whats that black regulator

havent gone out to my car to find it but from lookin in the haynes manual could be one of the following..power valve actuator, EGR valve or the IAC(idle air control)/air cut valve, im thinkin it is most likely that(IAC valve). that valve controls the amount of air that bypasses the throttle valve, which controls the engine idle speed, ill conferm in the morning
