Awesome Kelvin! I just posted about your channel and business on a few huge UZ facebook pages hoping to get you more exposure. You deserve way more viewers with your great content and products. If any car channel deserves hundreds of thousands of viewers, it's this one. Keep them coming mate! I think you should do some test drive videos of your conversions when finished. Because that video of your friends lancer was great! Cheers Kelly
Kelvin, what is the part number to the 3 tiny screws that hold in the IACV to the housing on the first generation Idle Air Control Valve, I lost them whilst at the junkyard. Currently I'm changing my 2nd generation (Non-Rebuildable IACV) to the 1st generation IACV but I happened to drop the bolts on my way out of the yard..
Thanks for the new knowledge! I was curious as to how you removed the rubber gasket at 15:00. You mentioned it was glued together from the factory, how would you go about removing it without damaging any components? Thanks in advance!
On that 95lexus sc400 you told me use some epoxy compound on front of hydraulic fan motor solenoid that the plastic rubber came off what I wanted to ask is a lot of sticky oil came out of it am going to have to worry bout that I'm going to seal it up with the epoxy soon thanks
Great info! One of my 1UZ engines sometimes idles low for the first 15 minutes. I cleaned the throttle body and it helped the cold idle but didn't completely fix the warm idle. After the car is driven for half hour its fine though.
@@billygreenhorn9275 Air leaks is a good start. Monitoring the live data can help. If you have large fuel trims then that could mean an air leak. We also see dirty throttle bodies and a build up of oil in the intake. It's not normally a sign of any other issue. Clean and continue. Also checking the AVIS is switching.
Cool as. My first one had copyright due to the radio playing in the background. Ive got a second video on my list focusing on the later one which is a bit trickier to pull apart. I've done 4 IAC rebuilds this week. Cheers.
@@CartuneNZ awesome mate this vid covers what I needed. hey mate can I ask a question, I've got a leaky power steering idle up valve, I'm wondering if I should just delete the whole thing or try source the two rubber o rings for the valve? it's for my 1990 celsior. Cheers for the videos again these have been so damn helpful to me.
@@dyllan1195 With a stock vehicle I would be replacing the idle up valve. They are much nicer when they are in place. Plenty of other Toyota's run them. On conversions I often delete but ones like a offroad 4x4 with auto I will run them where possible. Older celsior can be lovely cars when well looked after.
I have a video on finding part numbers. I think the idle air control hose for the UCF20 is now discontinued but you might be lucky. ruclips.net/video/VRrvWHYqYUc/видео.html
I have an SC400 with the "non-rebuildable" IACV, if I wanted to clean it would I need to disassemble the whole unit or is there a way I can just take the the black cover off the front?
Kelvin, I have a 96 SC400 and I'm wanting to do the coolant bypass. Please tell me, do I remove the pressed tubes on the stepper and if so, how do I seal the holes? Also, is it safe just to run a hose loop from each water Port at the back of the intake? Thanks!
Kelvin, great vid...my issue is the car got wet (blown stat housing) and then the idle started going crazy, 1000 to 2100 every second like a watch. Just revs up and then goes down, revs up and goes down and its a fast wind up like someone is hitting the gas...IAC rebuild?
Hi Kelvin. Ucf20. What does it mean for the 'unrebuildable' icv when I drill the blind holes and there are no roller pins inside. And the plastic cover is tough as balls to pry off
Hi kelvin can you make a video on idle up valve installation from the intake manifold vacuum hose with a switch from the driver dash were I can flick a switch to raise the idle to warm her up then switch off wen warm.
Hello. Does your vehicle not have a proper idle control system? I prefer to set up correct idle up but doing as you suggested is not hard. I prepared another vehicle recently for such a setup for the winch idle up. Cheers
HI Kelvin - awesome video once again - just a question - on the unrebuildable unit - the gold spiral that unscrews- how do you set it when assembling - is it supposed to screw all the way down or do you have to set it at a certain position? Cheers!
Using the 2nd part of this video I just pulled apart a JZ/Sealed unit which is apparently non-rebuildable, and what do you know - it comes apart! Myth busted. Thanks for the vid 😊
Depends where you live. If its not too cold then no issue removing the water lines from the IAC. I get the bearings from my cupboard, not sure where you would get yours but I would suggest a shop that sells bearings is a good start. Cheers Kelvin
been having some problems with my LS400 attempting to idle at 3000 rpm, and i'm thinking the IAC may be it. i'll need to go source a earlier version cuz this non-rebuildable crap is not good
I just stubbled upon the difference of these two IAC units. I purchased an early 1UZ that was missing its IAC unit. I found another today but its from a 1995 LS400. It looks like it would bolt right up, are they interchangeable?
@@CartuneNZ I'm getting a little obsessed with your channel. I'm planning on putting an early 1uz in a RA40 Toyota Celica. Currently starting to take it apart. Any advice? The wiring harness is a mess btw 😳
Hello, very useful video! I rebuilt my unit and now the car is seemingly stuck in reset loop. It does the throttle cycling but never stops. What can I do to correct it? Edit: meant to comment this on the IACV reset video
If its wired and the IAC is healthy then the ecu should self reset after a starts and turning the engine off of 10 seconds between restarts. Cheers Kelvin
@jacksonl3686 I keep genuine iac gaskets in stock which I purchase through trade suppliers direct from Japan. I suggest you try your local Toyota or lexus dealer
Hi mate your videos are great and really helpful I've got a issue with my 1uz I just finish fitting headers over summer put everything back together and now it idles at 2200rpm I did the reco on the aicv but still no change have checked all connections and checked for air leaks any ideas mate any help would be appreciated
I would check the TPS is set correctly , ideally using a scan tool to confirm both the throttle plate angle is at 0% and the Idle switch is on although doing it by just setting the idle switch is often ok at a pinch. I'd confirm where the additional air is entering the engine and work from there. Cheers Kelvin
@@CartuneNZ cheers mate got it sorted ended up being a stretched throttle cable from rolling the engine 😆but back on the road and running mint once again thanks for the help
You did watch the video to see the non rebuildable one get rebuilt though didn't you? It's much better to stick with the correct unit due to the resistance difference between the units however they can be interchanged. Cheers
I just inherited a 2001 GS430 that my father bought new he's now diseased he kept records of every oil change every 3000 miles it now has 153000 miles it still runs very good very fast .

Hello Bryan. GS430 are lovely cars. First thing is the check the code as thats indicating an issue. Mechanics need to also learn to read live data and understand it. There is so much more to diagnostics than codes. Exhaust leaks can lead to oxygen sensor faults or poor reading causing running issues too. Its due for its belt change so perfect opportunity to give it some more love an check it over. Cheers Kelvin

Thanks heaps for all your awesome videos hope you have a great xmas
Thanks.
Would I be able to turn it a couple rotations and install it unplugged and have a permanent idle ?
Hi Kevin my early 1uz wont idle at all now where do you think i should look first to fix this?
4:04 is there a part number for that hose or could I replace it with a different 19mm hose

does the second unit use the same bearings as the first? I mightve missed it
No, different size bearings between early and later model iac
Hi Kelvin. Ucf20. What does it mean for the 'unrebuildable' icv when I drill the blind holes and there are no roller pins inside. And the plastic cover is tough as balls to pry off
I'd suggest you might be doing something wrong as they always have roll pins.
at 2:58 what is that hose cause i can’t find it, is it a vacuum hose?
Its the air supply to the tappet cover. No longer available so we use a piece of universal oil resistant hose.
@@CartuneNZ thank you!!
What is the part number for the bearing for the rebuildable one ?
Thanks!
did you not watch the damn video loo
I'll be back at my car tomorrow sorting out the gremlins. The start and turn off 3times ect then warm up. I haven't tried so that's good advice thanks
Is it a conversion or is the engine still in its correct body?
Is the engine in a conversion or in the original body?
Are the two versions interchangeable? I've got a 96 1UZ-FE and wondering if I can go to the easily rebuild able one?
Yes, they interchange however the inlet hoses are different sized between the two units which needs to be resolved to swap them. Cheers Kelvin
You are awesome mate! Thanks for the tip on rebuilding the later model iacv on the ls400. Would you happen to have the bearing numbers to rebuild it?

Anyone knows how to wire the isc to use it with a standalone ecu?
Yes, easy to do with a suitable aftermarket ecu. I provide the information free to my customers when they purchase their ecu from me. Cheers Kelvin
Anyone know the size bearings he used for the later model IAC, the small bearings
6801 and 689 with plastic seals. Oem is Koyo
Are they the same size bearings?
hi kelvin, i have a 93 ls400 that is idling very high, around 2500 and and the car warms up the idle rpm continues to increase. where should i start?
Id start by finding where the extra air is getting into the engine, most likely by clamping the iac tube.
Can you tell me what the bearing sizes are on the UCF20, I cant find a IACV around so I'm looking to rebuild it, Thanks in advance
6801 and 689 with plastic seals. Oem is Koyo
Can I use the early IACV on the newer engine, I know I would have to change the pipe size to the smaller
I often do without an issue. Cheers Kelvin
