Throttle Body Hoses

^^ Right, that didn't cause the corrosion. That mod is done so the coolant now bypasses the TB so it doesn't heat the intake air charge anymore. If you connect the 2 outlets (the ones that feed coolant to the TB) on the coolant tubes with one piece of hose you're just looping the coolant back to the tubes and the TB is now operating dry. Coolant in the TB (factory setup with hoses sending coolant to the TB to heat it) is what caused the corrosion I found on the aforementioned TB.


Edit: I suppose you could also just delete the 2 outlets with a couple of rubber caps and clamps. I've just found it easier to loop it back since the shorter piece of hose works pretty well for this and it's already there

My fault, you did say you bypassed it earlier. I think I am going to do this, Thanks for the tip.
