Washed the engine bay and was careful not to hit anything electrical or dizzy or alt and now iv got a high idle. I mainly washed the valve cover cus its leaking.

Would the water on alt or dizzy give me a high idle.

 

No but having a vac leak would

 

Iv checked for that. Didnt find a single thing loose. I had the worst time figuring out the previous high idle issue on this renix. Ended up being bad grounds to the sensors in the factory wireing harness. But all things seem tight this time.

 

Oh you have a Renix... Sorry good luck, a Renix guy will def chime in on this way for ya

 

I'm going to be flushing my cooling system Tuesday.

Roughly how many gallons of coolant will I need?

 

Double check the vacuum lines, you had to of knocked something loose

 

Make yourself one of these for next time

 

i may have to pay you to ship that to me then I'll ship it back when I do mine

 

LMAO! I had to make one of those to take the doors off.. Worked perfect.

 

I did that to take the doors off also, but all you have to do is get a wrench that fits over the bit and turn it. Don't have to weld

 

So my bolt that connects the track bar at the axle, for some reason I couldn't get the nut on it, after an hour of fighting I'm tired of it. Can I just weld the bolt on?

 

Like can't get it in the hole? . Have someone turn the wheel back and forth for you, it will line up.

 

Valve cover's pretty close to the TPS/IAC. Also if you blew caked on ancient oil tar goop crap off of a crack in a hose or poorly seated intake manifold that could cause a vacuum leak.

 

Weird thing is once the engine bay dried up it doesnt do it at all.

 

It's a lot easier to just have one welded up. I tried the wrench over bit route and it was a PITA. Lol that torx bolt Is in there tighttt
