double throttle control solenoid question
While changing the air intake thermosensor I accidentally broke the nipple off the double throttle control solenoid that connects to the UIM. Just wondering what this will do to the car? I plan on doing the vaccum hose job over the winter (so I can replace the solenoid then) but am wondering if it will be okay to drive until then.

Yea, cap the nipple and you should be good... double throttle isnt vital to engine operation or performance, it is merely to protect against boosting when the engine is cold. Just be VERY careful not to boost at all until the car is warmed up

I ditched the double-throttle control (DTC) and accelerated warm-up system (AWS) on my car. It's a pretty easy job and simplfies things a little:
