Need help identifying IACV...

For those who knows, which of the 3 locations is the IACV (Idle Air Control Valve)? Or none of them are the correct location ... i looked at the engine diagram but it doesn't look exactly like the picture... I'm almost sure that it's #2 but i need to be 100% sure before i clean/replace it...Thanks...

It's not 2 or 3 I know that, I believe it's #1 being that it's ON the TB but don't quote me for sure.

#3 is your EGR

It's under the throttle body. You have to take it off, and you'll see it attached to it underneath. It's both magnetic and mechanical, so don't get it wet.

the IACV, this is the part that could cause drop in rpm's and vibrations when say the Fans cut on, and it feels like the RPM's drop. Trying to make sure cause I read somewere that you should clean these. I was wondering the same thing of were those were exactly.

Well the reason i'm looking for the IACV is because my car idles at 900-1500 RPM, which is very high (normal @ 700rpm). The IACV clogging or misfunctioning is the most probable cause for the eratic idling so i want to take it off and try to clean/replace it.

I've found the answer to my question. Read this thread if you want to replace/remove the IACV yourselves.
