Default Re: Idle Problems

Sounds like you got a bad TB I am sure there is nothing wrong with the plenum. There si really nothing to them at all. But, there have been some instances of the TB not properly closing.

Now that you have it removed, did you hold it up to a light while the blade is close? Can you see light through it? If so, it's not closing properly.

I am actually the Administrator for Mustang Tunings Forums. Let me know if you have any problems getting your parts exchanged. While I suspect that the plenum is fine, you should try to replace both. If it were me, I would have them send a replacement witht he promise that you can get a refund for the ones you have now. That way you can mix and match and compare the two sets when you get the replacement ones. I don't actually work for MT, so I do not set policies or returned items, but I have sent stuff back and they have always been cool about it.

Drop my name with them when you call and tell them that you know me from this forum and that I have been trying to help you. That may help.

Blake

Thanks a lot Blake.. I surely appreciate your help. I have done what you suggested and saw quite a bit of a gap and could see the sunlight from that blade gap when I put it up. You are right about where the problem was. I even called a friend at a speedshop to tell him about this and you both have the same conclusion. However, tried calling MT this morning but could not get through. All I could get is a message saying the answering machine is full. I will try shooting them an e-mail today and attach your message to it, hopefully they will respond. I will be having surgery on wednesday and won't be able to call. So I will try again right after. Thanks again for your help...
