The IACV on a '99 Mercury Cougar V6 is on the top right of the Upper intake manifold, there is a hose leading from the intake tubing to the IACV.
On the I4 Zetec Cougar, I am not sure where the IACV is, though I believe it is on the side of the throttle body.
IACV stands for Idle Air Control Valve. If you are throwing a code for this part, then chances are that it is clogged somehow. Your choices are to replace it or try to clean it. Good luck.
can anyone tell me where to find the OBD2 plug in on a 1999 cougar?
If this is a '99 through '02 Cougar, this sounds like the so called "Moosing" problem, which is a problem with the Idle Air Control Valve (IACV), and is fixed by taking the IACV out, its connected to the upper intake manifold, and either cleaning it thoroughly, or replacing it.

I have a 1999 Nubira, and the IACV is on the throttle body next to the TP sensor. Both are black, the IACV is the smaller, round one. The TP sensor has more of a half moon shape.
