Okay I previously posted the problems that I was having with my rough idle and lower that before mpg. I was fed up with the engine shaking and the extra rich smell from the exhaust. I put the 5th and 6th port sleeves back in and i also replaced the air pump, (tommorro i will finish hooking the air pump to the 5th and 6th port actuators). once i was finished i let the car warm up and the idle was perfect ! I also noticed that the smell was alot better than before not nearly as rich. The moral of the story DO NOT REMOVE THE SLEEVES FROM THE 5TH & 6TH PORTS. Oh befor I forget I just wanted to know if there is anyone that has customized the 5th and 6th port actuation feature I was looking for some Ideas and pictures any help would be great.

Yea you probably didn't do all that was necessary to make it run right if you say you just put the sleeves and pump back on.

I plugged the holes with some steel hex key plugs after that i sealed on top of the plugs with rtv black and put the retaining brackets used to hold the shaft in for the sleevs back in place then i checked it with starter fluid while it was running, no leak. What are pineapple sleeves?

Pineapple racing has some sleeves you switch too, they keep the same properties when closed, but have better flow when open.
