fiav question

[v8s_are_slow]

on the vfaq, it says that if you're gonna reroute your waterlines so that they don't go to the throttle body, you should blockoff your fiav. i have my waterlines rerouted but didn't block off the fiav. are there any ill effects i should expect from not doing this? and if so, what would those effects be? thanks!

high idle until the engine itself got to operating temp and melts the wax pellet.

oh okay. i can live with high idle. haha! figured i'd have to live with it barely wanting to run until it warms up or something (of course i didn't have so was making me wonder). anyway, thanks for the info.

Nope, nothing major. Just idle issues until it gets up to temp.
