If your UIM has only two vacuum connectors then it is oil inj. and vacuum spider. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif

i got it all taken care of... i just finished the TB mod. I was lazy and didnt want to finish it ... but i did. So its all good now https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png and i also found my block off plate for the idle control! TB looks clean since i took all the ugly **** off and jb welded the old butter fly holes shut. i'll snap pictures.

i would suggest to use that as a temporary fix......dont be lazy and not get them plugged/welded shut..... theyre large holes and over time might suck in the jb weld, creating huge vac leaks and sucking in big chunks of whatever jb weld is, maybe cuasing damage

ive always heard of people using jb weld on them and having no problems. *shrug*



i thought about this also, but jb weld seems to work well. When i install the microtech im going to do a few other things also, i should toss it on the list to be welded.

I wouldn't recomend using JB weld for those holes. If you still have the TB off, I'll grab some loctite, a tap and 2 set screws from my work tomorrow...



Just wait till you see what I'm making for my car, everyone on here will want one. I'll post pics when its done.
