If you all could help me complete the puzzle id greatly appreciate it....

All vacuum sources after the throttle blade should have the same amount of vacuum. Hook the vacuum lines up wherever you can and cap the rest.
-
the " hole in my throttlebody" what is it want what does it do? they guy at the dealership as trying to say that it was how the truck idled? and as far as the other Male connection i can cap that, its plugged on my stock intake... ?
-
The hole in your TB is the idle air hole. Air flows thru it and by your idle air control to control the idle.
-
ya thats what they said at the dealership... but on the new intake the place were the intake and the idle hole are saposto meet up its blocked off on the intake side? you can see it on the 3rd picture.... so would that mean it wont work?
-
Drill a hole in it if ya got to ha ha! Post up A pic of your TB, the side that
Mates to the intake.
-
Kk ill get one tonight. The only thing with the intake part of that is if you drill you'll go threw the back of it its solid. Doesn't go into the intake like my other one?
-
heres a picture of the new intake, you can see its about 3/8 of an inch or so wide behind the TB, but its solid plastic, if you drilled it would go out the back of the intake rather than back into it....?

Is that a drive by wire TB? I've got a dbw TB at the shop and a 99truck intake. I'm headed that way in a couple hours. Ill take a look at mine when I get there.
-
Kk. And that's what I'm guessing the intakes for. I have a 2004 sierra but its all elc no cable
-
I got busy at work and forgot to look at my intake I had laying around. On my truck I have an 04 intake and 99 dbc TB. On my truck the hose that is coming from behind the throttle body that goes to the valve cover (pic #6) is capped off behind the TB and the valve cover is vented to atmosphere.
-
ya makes seance, so basically all i have to do is cap off that hose at the vale cover correct? but as far as the hole on my TB it will be plugged from the back so do i get it to idle threw tuning? or do i need a new throttle body?
-
No the hose at the valve cover must be vented, just slip a filter onto it and cap the nipple off behind the tb
-
o ok i can put a breather on it, and the one behind the TB isnt there on the new intake. there isnt a place for that hose to go ? just on the valve cover not a male end or hole or anything on the Intake
-
the 3rd and 7th picture is of the new intake the 3rd you can see were the hole on my TB would line up and its solid plastic, and the 7th you can see that there isnt a place to drill or anything?
-
What year model is the new intake?
-
I'm sorry all this has got confusing I'm just trying to help lol.
-
im not to sure the guys sent it with the heads i had done, is there a way of looking on it and telling?
-
DBW throttle bodies don't have idle air ports.
It is the intake port for the crankcase vent. The older throttle bodies had the hole and then the nipple was on the intake that went to the valve cover. If you look at the way the newer trucks are set up the same line for the valve cover is hooked to the intake duct work pre throttle body.
If you replace the valve cover line with an open filter/vent you need to do the same on the other side or you are introducing unmetered air through the PCV.
-
The dbw TB controls idle by opening the blade instead of using an iac valve. Vent your valve cover and bolt the TB on and you should be ready to go.
-
so i need to put a breather on each valve cover? or just the passanger side? and should i epoxy the hole in my throttle body and sand it flush?
