I ground it flat with a dremel, then tried to center-punch it with a nail. Not a chance. It blunted my best nails.

That's the point when I gave up, and replaced the throttle body as a unit. I was avoiding that because I didn't want to break the throttle cable adjustment screw. No worries there, because that screw is brass.

Job's done, Insight's got an IACV now.

I had to steal screws off my bicycle because I didn't have any other M5x0.9 bolts that were long enough.
