Is the idle speed sensor the same as the idle air control valve on a 93 ford tempo?

Probably - although it's a misnomer.


The IAC or Idle Air Controller does the actual controlling of the idle speed while an idle speed sensor would indicate the actual idle speed input to the computer.Is the idle speed sensor the same as the idle air control valve on a 93 ford tempo?
no one is a sensor and the other is an actuater. idle speed sensor tells the computer how fast the engine is turning, and the computer tells the idle air control valve to open or close to correct idle speed.
