I’m i’m not mistaken, your talking about your Mass Air Flow sensor. Your car will not start without it. And even if it did start, it would run like complete shit.

i think the KA is around the same 2500 or 2400

i think your talkin about the idle air control valve. it is a rectangular box with one hose into and a couple wires out the back. just stick a breather on it and your good to go. its to only APC product on my car
