montana tom Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 preventing Icing up and it runs thru the iac (idle air control) to tell the ecu what RPM to run the idle at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
punx2400 Posted November 10, 2017 Author Share Posted November 10, 2017 so basically a Utah thing(which is where the car came from, but still isn't cold enough to warrant such a mod) but he just did it anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 Lucky Texan Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 there's an argument for keeping intake air cool and dense for xtra power. Questionable whether the difference could be felt in a daily driver. I read once of a crack in a throttle body and coolant leaked out there. Extremely rare but maybe he was bypassing the TB due to a leak? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
