A sound attenuator is provided for an idle air control valve system in order to reduce noise emanating from the idle air control valve. The sound attenuator comprises a fibrous pad that is inserted into an air conduit of the idle air control system. In a preferred embodiment, the fibrous pad is inserted into the air conduit near the air inlet where the conduit receives air from a region upstream, or above the throttle plate. A small hole can be provided through the air inlet. In certain embodiments, the air inlet of the air conduit is an opening formed in an inner cylindrical surface of the throttle body. In alternative embodiments, the air inlet can be remote from the internal surface of the throttle body.
