idle air control valve

GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
English term or phrase:idle air control valve
Slovak translation:ventil regulácie vzduchu pre voľnobeh

English term or phrase: idle air control valve
"When the idle air control valve is opened according to the signal from ECM, the air bypasses the throttle valve through bypass passage and is finally drawn into the intake manifold."

Several dictionaries suggest "ventil regulacie/regulacny ventil volnobeznych otacok". It's more or less a correct translation, but the "idle air" element is missing. Essentially, this valve, by means of "idle air", controls (regulates) the idle speed of the engine (of a vehicle). So I consider "idle air" and "idle speed" as equivalents in this context.
Would you use the translation suggested by dictionaries or is there a more "faithful" translation? I am quite confused because several sentences/segments related to this issue occur in my source text, such as:

"Idle speed/idle air control duty inspection" - is "kontrola prevadzky regulacie volnobeznych otacok" enough?

followed by:

"If duty and/or idle speed is out of specifications, inspect idle air control system"

Thank you for your suggestions!
