Where is the idol control valve on engine?

You're likely referring to the Idle Air Control (IAC) valve, not an "idol" valve.

The location of the IAC valve varies depending on the make, model, and year of your vehicle.

Here's a general guide to finding it:

1. Consult your owner's manual: This is the most reliable source for the exact location of the IAC valve in your specific vehicle.

2. Look near the throttle body: The IAC valve is often located close to the throttle body, which controls the amount of air entering the engine.

3. Check the intake manifold: The IAC valve may also be mounted on the intake manifold itself.

4. Identify it by its appearance: The IAC valve is usually a small, cylindrical device with one or more electrical connectors. It may also have a vacuum line connected to it.

If you are unsure about the location of the IAC valve, it's best to consult a qualified mechanic. They can help you identify it and determine if it needs to be replaced.

Please provide more details about your vehicle (make, model, year) if you want more specific guidance on finding the IAC valve.
