aight guys i need ur help ASAP.


i took off my intake manifold to install my thermoblock spacer kit today, along with a mugen thermostat and also the fan switch.

I installed everything, put everything back together, and start up the car.

the engine now makes a fucking woooshing sound, and it goes up and down from 3k to 1.5k rpm non-stop. (i shut it off after 2-3 seconds didnt wanna mess it up)

no lights are on.


WTF did I do??

brakejob

bad seal somewhere in the intake, vac leak...

check everything again

brakejob

something is probably loose, or not seated well...

@cUr@-TL

ok i took off the intake manifold and noticed a huge leak at the EGR port, i fixed that, put the manifold back on and now it stills goes up and down, but the wooshing sound is gone.

any thought??

sounded like and was a vacum leak. double check every thing again and reset your puter

Yep, definitely a leak somewhere. Mugen cooling mods wouldn't do that, so we can rule those out as a cause of the problem.

@cUr@-TL

fuck it im removing the intake manifold spacer


anyone wanna buy it? 50$

fsttyms1

unless the spacer is bad it shouldnt be causing any problem.

have you tried resetting the computer?

brakejob

did you make sure all the surfaces were clean prior to installing the spacers.... no gasket material left over?

@cUr@-TL

it'S a type-s spacer so that's why it doesnt fit good.


anyone has a TL-P spacer for sale?

fsttyms1

that may be the issue??? i wasnt aware that teh lower IM was different though

Best way to find out is to take everything off and match up the spacer to the IM and make sure the ports line up properly.
