small pipe missing
« on: 15 August 2013, 16:25 »
Hey guys, ive had some idle / overfuelling issues with my vr6. I traced it to a small 2-3mm intake/outlet thing underneath the throttle body, it looks like theres meant to be a pipe coming off it going to somewhere.

Anyway i covered this over with some tape and it idles so good, runs great & not getting any of the pops and bangs on the overrun that was getting before.

I have noticed the car is running a bit hotter than normal (94-96 degrees) and the fans come on more, not sure if blocking this small intake/outlet has something to do with it,

my question is what is this intake /outlet for??? ill post up a pic shortly for you
