my car now idles, but at what cost? Mon, 11 April 2005 11:04 Go to previous message
recently i had a hunting idle problem, which was kinda annoying because it would hunt between 2500RPM and 3500 RPM, so not really much of an idle at all.

after reading witzls comments in 4AGTE vacuum lines, i pulled the throtle body off and had a look at it, then just blanked off the idle up air bypass completely, as there are no coolant lines running through my TB.

i just used flat sheet steel, cut out with a nibbler, which took ages. before i drive it i am going to seal it all with gasket shit,

is this fix dodgy? and if so, how dodgy?

cheers,
