To find it, you'll need to:
1. Determine your engine type: Knowing whether you have a 4-cylinder or a V6 engine is crucial. This information is usually found on your vehicle's registration or the engine bay itself.
2. Consult a repair manual: A Haynes or Chilton repair manual specific to your year and model Montana van will have diagrams showing the location of the IACV. This is the most reliable method. These manuals are readily available online and in auto parts stores.
3. Search online for your specific year and engine: Use a search engine like Google with a search query like "Chevrolet Montana [Year] [Engine size] IACV location." You might find images or forum posts showing the location.
Generally speaking, the IACV is often found on or near the throttle body. It's a small, usually cylindrical valve, sometimes with electrical connectors attached. However, its exact position can vary based on the engine design.
Caution: Working on your vehicle's engine requires some mechanical aptitude. If you're not comfortable doing this yourself, take your van to a qualified mechanic.
