I have coolant in my intake??
Ok I recently bought a rrm ported tb and I installed it correctly. It has been a few days and I smell coolant in my car. My car has been sputtering a little and at times it has white smoke coming out the tail pipe. I undid my sri and found coolant inside it. the inside of my throttle body and intake manifold are wet and my plugs have fouled out for a second time. any suggestions??? thank you.
there's a tube that pipes coolant through the TB to keep it warm. I see you're in FL, so that's not too much of a worry. Use a short piece of pipe to connect the tubes that feed the inlet and outlet, bypassing it. And call RRM to get it replaced, sounds like they might have bored a little close to the water passages
If you do the bypass, I wouldn't worry about getting it replaced. You can even take one of the hose's outlets and plug it onto the other hose's inlet (you'll see the two hoses and figure it out, I'm sure
)

Well I got another problem now.... I fixed the o-ring on my throttle body so no more coolant leak... I got good 93 octane gas due to my piggyback. I hooked up a grounding kit and hit the road on start-up it was all good...good idle not loopy or jumpy at all and I took a 20 min drive. Well when I shut off the car and turned it back on again the idle went from 1k to 2.1k and stays there.... I turn on the ac and it goes down to 1k. I put it in gear and it goes to about 900k...also in the short 20 min drive my spark plugs (new ngk) are burnt up and very hot!! Any suggestions??? I am baffled and would it be a good idea to drive it like this?
