not filter, it wouldn't run over five mph , IAC idle air control is an electronic gadget on the intake near throttle usually . they clog with carbon and the little motor drive sticks blocking air flow
Check for contaminated Fuel. The fuel filter is in the fuel tank and part of the pump. Has the throttle body been fiddled with ? Check the MAP sensor is securely fitted and has no leaks.
I,VE got a Icon 2004 model and when she,s idleling it goes up and down what can it be
Check for any air leaks in the intake system. Check also the altinator charging rate. It could be that charging voltage is too low. The charging voltage should be about 13 to 13.5 volts
Check for vacuum leaks..check .injectors are clean.make sure fuel pump is delivering correct pressure checked by leads or spark plugs From andre
Check the altinater charging rate. Ithe charging rate is too low, like 11 volts it will do this . Your charging rate should be about 13 volts.
Why does my 2004 Ford Ikon idle at 1800 - 2000 rpm?
