My new boat was hit by the Mercury recall for the IAC valve.  My dealer just sent me the part, said it was super easy to swap out, not worth a long drive for a 2 minute job.  Anybody here replaced an IAC valve on their engine?  Is it really that easy?  I’ve read on other forums where guys wanted to do it themselves but the dealer said it could cause warranty problems.  Should that worry me before I do it?

 

Maybe this easy?

That looked super hard.  Two nuts and a push connector?  I’m no mechanic....

So I did it.  Only took 2 minutes because I dropped a screw and had to fish it out.  I’d feel dumb driving my boat 2+ hours to my dealer for that...
