My SC400 has terrible idle so I'm cleaning the IACV. The unit is held on my 3 screws. I lost one of them and I think it fell underneath the intake manifold. What should I do??? Can I get away with just the remaining 2 screws I have left? There is no way in hell I can remove the intake manifold for just one screw. Please help asap thank you.

I wouldnt try to go with anything less than oem since you could cause a vac leak

How about one of those ext. magnets the size of a pencil?

Yeah I've thought about getting a magnet I'm fine with trying that. But if that doesn't work will two be fine until I can find another one? Reason I ask is because it's very tight space in there and I doubt I will be able to get the angle I need

Also when putting it back together does that little 4 fanned metal saw blade looking thing do flat side on bearing or spokes on bearing?

Found the screw. Was under radiator house in the dark. So about that fan looking thing. Anybody? When I took it apart it flew out so I didn't get to see how it sat originally

Okay so I got it all sorted out. Everything is back together and my idle is still jerky...less intense and less consistent but it's still there it's like a hiccuping. Gonna move on to the fuel ecu. Thanks guys. For the record the little 4 fanned metal thing I was talking about goes with the flat side down against the plastic not the bearing.

Yeah, I lost both my TPS screws into the intake manifold and fished them out using an extended magnet pencil.
