if it is leaking(jumpy idle), adjust it and glue it in place

hopefully the pics work...........

Remove plate, don't loose the o-ring (7 mm heads)



Turn clock wise.........



If your good, you can do this without removing the TB from the car. Since running ES motor mount inserts I have to do this about once a year.

take that ---- off... fill holes with jb weld...sand smooth and your good to go

i have tape covering the holes in the mani where the FITV goes, its fine after about 5min

plugging it will work but expect super low/crap/---- idle before your engine warms up. the car is basicly NOT drivable before it warms up coz it would stall in any minute

That is a major issue here in Ohio.

Mid week it could 75-80, you could get by without the FITV........but then 30-35 on the weekend with snow.........you ain't going nowhere until car warms up!
