hey guys i think its the iacv thats causing my running and starting issue.
my question to you all is one- how to get the two lower bolts out. two- i have the top sensor magnet part off and wondering if its the same for all legacys turbo and na? will i most likely have to replace the whole thing?
i have a 93 turbo and i understand that pre facelift cars have a different iacv can i still make one work? guy locally is parting out a 91. thanks guys

-91-94 turbo's used all the same iacv's. n/a's used a different style but are in the same spot. You could probably use an n/a iacv but you would have to customize the hose running from the iacv to the intake. Not really sure if the coolant lines are in the same position either, but in that case, if your coolant lines still run through your throttle body, I would just bypass the TB.

The coolant lines are the same between the n/a & turbo IAC valves. Only the intake tube is different.

-I was able to get them out with a TD04 on. Don't remember what I used, sorry. Smallest tools, sockets, swivels, wrenches etc. Or you can always take your turbo off :P
