I recently purchased a 95 diamante ls dohc at acutionwith only 122k miles on it ($2500 bucks). apparently, this was a car from florida and from what i understand it may have been floded or something, the title has like 23 red flags against it..

be that as it may, the darn thing runs great and is amoungst one of the nicest cars i've had, getting between 28 (town and hwy miles)and 32 mpg(85mph) except for a few problems...

one being the idle air control motor is shot. I ordered the part from rock auto but for the life of me, i can't see where this thing goes.. does anyone have any idea "where" it goes?

the other problem i have, is the seats are very uncomfortable for a long drive... is this normal or did perhaps the flooding damage the seat padding? they look like they should be very comfortable but after a 8 hr drive, my arse is hurting!

anyway, my first mitsubushi was a 13 inch color tv and i suppose i never thought much of a tv maker making a car but as far as i can tell, and besides for a few problems (ac not blowing cold air) it seems like a fine car and think i should get another 100k miles out of it before it goes belly up.

but, i fcan't find the darn idle air control motor!! Please help
