QUESTION: Check engine light does not come on when ignition is turned on. Also I checked and cleaned the IAC valve and FIC solenoid housing which did not cure the problem. The MAF sensor seems to be operating as idle get rough when it is unplugged.Also checked the Catalytic converter for blockage and it had none. Engine starts and idles normally.
