Title: Holy manifold?
Post by OddJob on Feb 11^th, 2005, 12:58am

Perfect picture

Is that one or two holes I can see at the end on the plenium chamber after the IAC ???
I think the horizontal one is blocked, not sure now about the top one, though I have seen that it has a thread ???
Shall have to investigate futher (any ideas ???) especially after screwing a bolt into it ::) after all why should there be a hole in a sealed unit anyhow ???
I must admit, forgetting the fact that I had only seen it because I cleaned the IAC yet again, I found that the idle did improve considerably more so than after cleaning the IAC previously or maybe it's just that I did a better job this time ;D

hi there

maybe it's from when it was cast. just screw a rod in to hold it?

I had actually thought of that, but still you would have thought it would have been blanked off later so as not to draw air in to the system. ???
