I just want to add that I tried to screw in the FIAV on one TB but that sucker wouldn't budge and it wasn't something I felt comfortable using brute force on. The bypass plate is only a couple bucks so may be something to consider beforehand.
That's something I can try that won't empty my pocket. Thanks
Are your coolant lines going to your fiav or are they looped (eliminated).
They're connected to FIAV with coolant flowing through. Thanks
Problem resolved.
Removed the throttle body again to try and tighten the FIAV. Then I noticed that the throttle plate wasn't straight from when I replaced the shaft seals. There are two marks on the plate that run parallel to the shaft. Since I had it off, I took apart the bottom half and the FIAV spring looked extremely cruddy, so I cleaned it out w brake cleaner as best as possible. Coolant was brown water when I got it. Boost leak tested and it holds much longer now. ISC sits at a very happy 30.
Thanks everyone!!
