the g/f had a 2000 rav4, and the IAC valve kept getting gummed up. using
good gas and synthetic oil didnt help. the only fix was taking the
little hose off it and shooting throttle body cleaner up it every so
often. otherwise it would idle erratically and sometimes stall when cold.

hopefully, that problem is fixed. otherwise, it wasnt a bad lil trucklet.
