I think when your car's idling and the revs start dropping until the engine starts to shake abit and rises again and the cycle repeats itself, it's time to replace it.. what does it do?? maintain the engine's idling speed i guess..
I can't remember exactly how much it is...I replaced it at dealer and definitely not huge sum like replacing gasket...under $100??


how do i know if i need to replace it? what does it do...how much to replace it?
