[QUOTE="Fireuz, post: 579355, member: 15565"] WD40 will leave an oily residue which will carbonise when the AFM goes through its burn cycle shortly after switch off. It best for temporary measure, but it'll work only for short term. I would prefer to use carb cleaner is the best. Let it dry then reinstall. ICV = Idle Control Valve AFM = Air Flow Meter - you can google to know the position. I think there even have step-by-step on youtube. But if you feel like buying a new one, just get a soft rag and lightly clean that way. [/QUOTE]
