    Default Cleaning the ICV

    Do I need to remove the intake manifold to get to the ICV on my M50? I read someplace that I didnt need to take it off, but there are several other conflicting posts.

    Hmm... I was just looking at it. I dont think that Im getting it out of there without taking the intake manifold off. I'm going to try but I have rather large hands.

    Default Try the intake boot

    the big black hose between the MAF and the throttle body, the ICV is hooked up to that via a hose and nipple, so removing it should help.
