In the tech article for cleaning it, it said it should be sticking out 1 1/8" and if it's past that you can give it a push and the pin will move in (gear motor driven) then there is a procedure before startup and the computer will reset it. Mine is all coroded and I pushed on it pretty damn hard and it wouldn't budge. Also, my car won't idle, it wasn't just that it wouldn't rev. I'd let it cool for a few, start it and a couple seconds later it was running like I had a cam in it and would die if I didn't try stepping on the gas. Plus, the part is cheap enough to replace and eliminate off my list when anything else goes wrong. It's at least 6 years old, possibly even original from 89, who knows.
