I live in the UK, no doubt the stuff we use over here might not be available in the states? You could use an alchohol based solution to clean it, so Methalated Spirit or whit spirit or whatever its called where you are? It might not work but its worth a try? If it is the Idle Control Valve that's faulty, you might be better off replacing it altogether?
