:wtf: After taking apart the idle control assembly, cleaning it and putting it back again, my 2002 Avalon started to run rough and missing like. But the puzzling part is that after running only 2 to 3 min, the manifold just behind the fan, began to glow orange from the intense heat, now I'm afraid to even start it. Any help or ideas will be greatly appreciated. PS,
On the title I meant to say weird.

Glowing exhaust manifold usually means there is too much fuel going through the engine into the exhaust system. I would suggest you go back and recheck you work to make sure all the hoses and wires that you had taken off are connected to where they are suppose to be.
