Hello All,
Its been a few weeks since posting anything on HIVE,so I figured I would share a visit under my hood of my Van.

The problem is when idling she sometimes stalls and runs rough. A couple good mechanics told me it's most likely my idle air control sensor. NAPA didn't have one in stock so I placed my order but I wanted to get comfortable opening up the engine compartment on the inside of the van, sometimes referred to as the Doghouse. Here is my journey.

Remove clips and clamps.

after 2 clips and 2 clamps I got it to wiggle free.

I was proud.

Me showing off that I got it removed and pulled back.

Engine close up 1

The engine is a 318, 5.9 liter.

2nd engine shot

shes got about 78k on her, I think everything is factory.

Need to replace this.

as of posting this I got my part this morning but I'm not installing it yet.

Hope all grease heads enjoy this!

For anyone who doesn't know I live in this van, I do the vanlife, and make most of my money doing programming and stuff on the internet.

I'll be doing more post about life on the road and places I visit, if this intrest you please follow along.

Peace,
