With just a two wire can I just give the thing 12 volt or 9 volt from 9 volt battery and see if it is working.

Put 9 volts to the ICV and it snaps into action so with only 2 wires there is not much more I can check on this. the inside of the connecting hoses and ICV itself are clean of particles with only a small amount of oil when wiped.

I removed Intercooler to get to the ICV and I'm wondering if I can start engine with intercooler removed ?

Also if the car is started without intercooler would I expect it to perform differently at idle then with intercooler connected?

I want to start car without the ICV connected and with the two air hoses plugged.

RACE911TURBO stated "it is easier to disconnect your idle control valve to locate your problem." I can watch the realtime data from the ECU but what will I be looking for to locate the problem?
