sprayed all the vac pipes manifolds etc with wd40 and the engine never went haywire .... so i guess that rules the vac leak out
i took it to the garage today and supposedly had the throttle body cleaned but i doubt he's done the icv, he did say the throttle was coked up in oily stuff... maybe the icv is the same idiot mechanics

they all get coked/oiled up due to the ecocrap system
spraying carb cleaner on the IAC can actually make things worse
