Idle Stabilizer Valve (ISV) - when working properly, it'supposed to hum.
You should be able to feel the vibrations with your hand e4ven if  you
can't hear the humming.


If you feel that, hear that, I would not immerse the unit, but clean
with brush and cleaner. I seem to recall there is a very tiny vent on on
it somewhere. Wouldn't want cleaner in there.
