Question Idle control valve?

Guys (and girls ?)
Can anyone please tell me where to find this on my my98 impreza a piccy would be good, reason i'm asking is my car has started to idle at a very low rpm (around 4-500 rpm) and stall sometimes when dipping the clutch when slowing down for roundabouts etc, have a power fc fitted and have read on this forum about it needing a clean on some cars after a fews months of being fitted

Many thanks

Neil

open the bonnet. top right of the manifold there is a brown is boxy bit.
thats it.

held on with 2 screws. MARK where it is BEFORE you remove it

clean with brake cleaner and then re-lube with some light machine type oil - or WD if you dont have that.

be gentle with it tho - its a bit delicate....

If it has only just started doing it try cleaning your MAF with carb cleaner first.
