Ok, this is a stupid question but what is the sensor on the front of the throttle body? The one facing the front of the car, not the TPS. I put my new throttle body on and it didnt come with a new gasket for this and the old gasket is destroyed. So im gonna go to advance tomorrow and get the part, but i dont know what its called? Is it the IAC? if so, what does IAC stand for?

Yeah, it's the Idle Air Control motor

OK, thanks. Also i put the sensor on with the gasket all mangled and broken, would that explain why it wont idle at all?

yeah if there is air getting in through the torn up gasket it wont idle correct at all. they might have another name for it there at advanced, but what ever they call it, it will have the word idle in it.
