Severe cold weather and TB bypass, a heads up.

[Frenchy]

I know this won't affect 96% of you guys. But like most of you I have my throttle body coolant line bypassed. Well, it was about -25 degrees this morning when I went to get a coffee. Cruising down the road, I let off the gas to slow down and the truck didn't react. Hit the clutch wouldn't idle down. So, I just gave it a shot of gas. That freed up the butterfly. Pulled over and the TB was just frosted right over frozen.

So just a heads up, it can happen and it is there for a reason.

Good thing ur truck is a standard. I've had the gas pedal stick in a automatic diesel and its not fun.

So the question is... Are you going to put the bypass back to stock?

[Frenchy]

Yeah I did for now. 30 seconds, a couple clamps, no big deal.
