[Han] I think your asking what an ISV is? ISV= idle stabilizer valve.

Poor idle could be a number of things. I went to look at an 8V with a similar idle problem last week.
It could be the ISV, blue temp sensor if its a digifant, metering head, throttle valve, air leak on inlet manifold pipes, cold start valve if its an early Kjet etc etc.

nope, not what i was asking, i was putting this forward as something to consider.
I know what ISV stands for.

i'm also pretty good with google and the site search feature...
