I think my IAC may have died, does any one have one they are not using that I can borrow or buy to see if it's the IAC or some other problem. These Troopers don't have an idle adjustment screw, do they?

Any other suggestions

They do have an idle adustment screw. Disconnect your IAC and set your idle with the idle adj. screw and see how that goes. Currently I don't use my IAC. They are nice in colder weather for warmup but other then that the Troopers don't use it for much. You can do the same thing with your foot on the throttle padal.

I have one you can try, but as Lenny said it is really only useful in cold weather. Once it warms up it will run fine, I haven't had mine hooked up for two years I just reset my idle with the idle screw works fine. I will send you a PM to contact me.

Evidently, My Trooper has never used the idle adjustment and I didn't think it had one, but this is what it looks like, 2300398650104110397agalUy_th.jpg 2587027120104110397QDwHSM_th.jpg and now that I have it engaged and working, i had to make several other adjustments also. I had to shorten the cable by 1/4", I must have been idling on the IAC all along because I'm certain that the butterfly used to close completely. Anyway, I now idle again and that is GOOD.

by the way, those photos were taken using a mirror,

What is the IAC? Is it the sensor located at the bottom of the throttle body? Idle Air Control? Having surge problem and wont' start problem. Anybody have a diagram of the various sensors and what is what? Thanks. Steve

2645671480104110397FQplBB_th.jpgremember that my manifold has been flipped, the device on top & left is the IAC and the device on the side & center is the IAT/MAP sensor.

Inside the throttle body, there is an air passage around the butterfly and that passage is closed off by the IAC. If the butterfly closes fully, the IAC has to open to allow the idle air in, but if the idle air is controlled by the idle set screw, the IAC closes up and only adds to the air supply when needed.

Having surge problem and wont' start problem Suggest unplugging IAC and set idle with set screw.

Did you notice any issue with having the IAC still hooked while using the idle screw?

No, but like I said, I think my IAC is dead.

That cylinder is the reservoir for my shock.

why did you flip your manifold ? is it something that added any power ?

It was pretty easy to do andat the time, I was having a problem with oil blow by due to dusted rings and as the oil would pass from the valve cover to the intake manifold, it soaked the MAP, so flipping it let the oil get sucked in and burned. It also moved the butterfly up and forward and made it easier to access the throttle and the starter and the wiring and closer to the snorkeled air filter. I doubt there was any performance changes, just easier access to several things. I like it!!!

      Must have upgrades/spares?
      By MilSurpYinzer
      Hey all, I was just wondering what you guys consider a necessary upgrade or spare part to have or mod onto your machine.
      I'm going for a kind of shtf survival rig that's not going to be SUPER heavy and I'm looking at getting:
      A spare belt (I keep seeing this mentioned everywhere I look so it must be important)
      A spare tire and mount( So would I need a jack like one from an old jeep or something else?)
      Tire chains for the winter
      And maybe a cargo bed upgrade so things don't slide out.
      Bumpers because duh.
      I already installed high output lights and have a windshield, roof, back window, and winch. And I outfitted a Molle panel for the back of my passenger seat with extra supplies like food, first aid, and spare mags.
      Any advise on increasing durability, longevity, and having something on hand because it's absolutely necessary would be a plus.
      Thanks so much!

      2009 Rhino 700 won't idle well
      By Big Red Dog
      Bought my 2009 Yamaha Rhino, (fuel injected of course), recently from the original owner. Only had 500 miles and 70hrs. Starts reliably, however, it will not idle but about 50% of the time. Also, when driving slow in low or high, that is to say, relatively low rpms and below about 10 mph, it bucks and almost wants to die..... not smooth at all. However, at speed (say 12-15 mph or more) it runs very well, like it should. Any ideas?

      2026 Mule Pro-FXT 1000: Soft cab suggestions?
      By dogfood
      Hello -
      New here - and looking hard at a 2026 Mule Pro-FXT 1000.  My wife insists we'll be going with the Platinum Ranch, because in her words, we already saved $ by not going with a Honda 1000-6.  Ready to pull the trigger on this ... almost.
      We were looking at the factory soft cab, but then realized this won't work with the standard hard top, as the soft cab has dual back windows to accommodate the 3/6 folding seats.  However, we like the hard top.  So recognizing there's a lot available in the aftermarket world, does anyone have suggestions relative to an aftermarket soft cab (sides, rear window, etc.) that will work with factory hard top, windshield and doors - and also allows for a (relatively) simple 3/6 seat conversion?
      Thanks,
      dogfood
