I cleaned my IACV without removing it. Just sprayed lots of throttle body cleaner deep into the little cavity in front of the throttle plate until it overflew. Repeated this several times until the cleaner overflown looks rather clean.

Hope that helps.

use a screw, or bolt extractor, and/ or a reverse drill bit. at which point re-tap threads & insert a new bolt.

no big deal.
