    are there any write-ups on how to replace the idle control valve and the mass air flow sensor, the yoter dealer wants 500 in labor :eek:...im letting them replace my water pump and all my belts and thats run me enough.

    also is there any differance in quality of an idle control valve and mass air flow sensor and spark plugs from advance auto opposed to the dealership?

    ie AA wants 80 for a mass air flow yota dealer wants 125 just for the part

    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.
    They are both very simple





    Sometimes AA uses OEM parts, sometimes they don't. It can be hit or miss.

    Just becareful with the MAF screws. They can be easily stripped because they are a bitch to get out.
