How come you did the TB coolant bypass on a winter car? lol

I still haven’t done it on mine and idk if I want to…think about it, why do planes wing’s freeze? Cold air+high winds+humidity=ice on wings.

I’d really rather not have ice build up on my throttle plate and have it get stuck open, or not be able to fully close :ohnoes.

no I mean inside the throttle body, the actual throttle plate. Shit gets cold man, real cold, the humidity in the atmosphere IS enough to form ice on it…it’s not a matter of if it’s a matter of when.

Idk but I’ll still be doing it on my car :rofl
