My car has been acting up...idling high and such. So I went to the junk yard today, pulled off an IACV from what they said was a 92. Supposedly whoever did the engine swap (previous owner) took the engine from a 95. This is a 1990 originally SOHC.

So anyways, I pull off my IACV and run into a problem. The connectors on both IACV's are different. On my original one, they are small squares and easily go into the harness connectors. On the NEW one, they are rounded off and I could not get them into the harness because the connectors are too big.

I shaved off the "pegs" on the outside and managed it to plug into the blue harness. The yellow one was a problem though. I had to break off some of the plastic casing on the harness and insert the two wires from the IACV into the yellow plug. I was wondering if anyone else has experienced fitment issues or what??
