Spin ? The idle valve is buried under the intake/hose assembly.
Are you refering to the CISe air flap ? If so, this is secured by the center bolt and the plate/flap is centered in the funnel with slight clearence all round. .

It's a rotary valve, but it does not 'spin'. The angle of rotation determines the air valve orifice size. Total rotation is less than 180 degrees.

The valve can carefully be rotated by hand. In the resting position, it leaves a small gap (adjustable). The direction of rotation is where it first closes the gap before it opens at the other side.
Se attached drawing.
