Thank you Sir! The thread hits were plenty encouraging, so you helped I'm sure. And
if I can get it done, anyone can (of course, it ain't done yet [NEVER is], but nothing got broken, and no 'problems')...
I could not get the 90' plenum fitting tight in the correct position, for the TB / coolant by-pass. The fabbed by-pass line is still in place, not obstructing anything (see in the video), so I won't have to yank the top to re-reroute it at a later date.
I tried Teflon tape on the fitting threads, and then thread sealant, without the tape, but didn't feel comfy with that. So for now, it's still running through the TB.
First post edited for Cliff's links info...
DEFINITELY read Cliff's links when he posts them. They're not always directly to the pertinent information - you'll have to read it ALL to get to the info, but it's ALL there, and you HAVE to go through it.
(Thanks a ton for that stuff Cliff). Use your bookmarks tool in your browser for it, and note that sometimes you'll run across info that's IMPORTANT at a later point...
