I did the TB mod and was wondering if it was possible to just bypass the collant lines to the BAC also. Or does it actually do something for the BACV? This car is not driven during the winter.

 

The BAC has nothing to do with driving in winter.

 

but the heat coming from the line over the BACV has some type of effect at idle right?

 

Thought I heard before it prevented it from sticking when cold thats why I mentioned the summer car thing. I can't think as how it would, hotter air is less dense which means less fuel for stoich, but maybe that's what they want to happen. I just want to know if bypassing it will hurt anything or have no effect whatsoever (maybe just a convenient way to get to where it needs to go but with no solenoids underneath there is plenty of room to run a line now)

 

unbolt the line from the BACV (yes it can stay connected while removed from the BACV) and just let it hang down or tiptie it away from the BACV and see if it makes much of a difference

i remember something being mentinoed about keeping it from sticking.. i think that was the reason..

 

the coolant line has nothing to do with the BAC. its just attached there because it needs to be attached to something....

 

okay, so it is basically used as as a way to route from the tb to the water pump then? Thanks, thats what I was wondering.
