What is the Intake Manifold Runner Control all about?

Your engine needs air in order to combust fuel, and varying amounts depending on the speed and driving condition. Older cars relied on nothing more than a basic air intake that pulled fresh air in through the filter and delivered it to the intake manifold. However, newer cars have the means of adjusting the flow of air through the intake in relation to driving conditions. These vehicles are equipped with intake manifold runner control modules, which are vacuum solenoids that operate a butterfly valve in the intake. During slower driving when the need for air is less, the butterfly stays closed. However, in aggressive driving situations, the butterfly opens and increases the amount of air sent to the intake. The computer compensates for this by adjusting the fuel mixture, and the result is an increase in performance.

Keep in mind:

  • The intake manifold runner control is not inspected during normal maintenance.
  • Both open and closed positions can cause damage to the engine.

How it's done:

  • The engine trim cover is removed from the top of the engine
  • The defective intake manifold runner control is removed
  • The new intake manifold runner control is installed
  • The engine trim covers are reinstalled
  • The engine is scanned and tested for proper operation

Our recommendation:

If the butterfly fails to open or close (sticks in one position or the other), the engine can sustain damage through either lean or rich running conditions. We recommend having the condition diagnosed by one of our expert mechanics.

What common symptoms indicate you may need to replace the Intake Manifold Runner Control?

  • Reduced engine performance output
  • Increased fuel consumption
  • Check Engine light is on

How important is this service?

Considering the fact that a malfunctioning intake manifold runner control could cause both lean and rich operation, it’s important to have the controller’s operation checked. This will require our expert mechanics to retrieve the diagnostic codes via the OBDII connector and test the controller for operation. We recommend having this service performed immediately.

Honda Pilot V6-3.5L - Oil Change - Sunnyvale, California
I had an oil change and tire-rotation service with them, and my experience has been great. The guy, Trung Do, called me a day before to confirm the appointment, and showed up on time. My car also have the problem that the service light (SRS) is on for a while. Trung did a diagnosis on it and explains in detail what he did and what we can do next. Beside oil changes, he also inspected the car, and show me that the rear brakes are almost worn out, and gave me the quote both online and on the premise. I choose not to fix it for now, and he didn't pressure me on it. The great thing about on-site service like yourmachenic.com is that there's 100% transparency, and you know for sure they are working on your car, in a timely manner. I had my service on my drive way in front of my house; it save me a lot of time going back and forth from the auto shop. I used to go to auto shop in the neighbourhood, only 2 miles away, for regular car service, which is already convenient, compared with many others. But this on-site service saves me even more time, and I'm rest assured that the oil HAS been changed. I also think you should sign up with big companies in bay area to provide on-site oil change service to their employees. You already got the mobile work force that can service them on their parking lot. These bulk-sales deals would be a good way to get your words out!

PO300 and PO420 and rough idle and RPM fluctuation

Claimed by Kevin Gainer

Hello, my check engine light came on in my 2001 Chrysler town and country van 3.3 v6 the code reader sent me these codes p0302 cylinder 2 miss fire, po403 exhaust gas recirculation control circuit, po508 idle air control system circuit low. I changed all the spark plugs and wires and the coil pack, this made the car run good, but the idle speed was really low, so I took off the throttle body and idle air control valve and clean ed them really good. After I put it all back together now the van is idling really high 1500 to 2000 rpms. So by cleaning the throttle body and idle air control valve my van went from idling really low to really fast and I dont understand why. I researched the idle air control valve and one of the tips it said was there could be a vaccum leak that would cause the idle to run high. Would should I do? Replace the idle air control valve? Is there a way to tell if it needs to be replaced or maybe when i took it off the two o rings on it could be bad so would that cause a vaccum leak? Any help you can give me is greatly appreciated.
