    where is the cervix?
    are you talking about the idle air servo or idle air control? periodic cleaning is required on this item together with the throttle body every time you have an engine tuneup done. it only takes cleaning with carburetor cleaner in the throttle body and the idle air control cavity. in time, the oil vapors gunk up on this area clogging and binding these components

    unless you have a bad or no air filter, then the servo mechanism could be contaminated. you may try a servo repair kit to fix the idle problem. but most of the time, it has to be replaced.
