I changed the iac valve with no luck and I found out when I plug the hose that runs to the iac valve the car stays running but the second I take my thumb off of the hose the car dies again so could that mean there is air getting into the engine from somewhere else which is causing it to Stall out? Maybe a vacuum leak?
