Default Fitv wont stop sucking air.= [

I recently installed a skunk 2 manifold and now i have high rpm at idle. (With the throttle cable unhooked-2k rpm)

Everything was fine before i installed the skank2.

When i cover the fitv hole in the throttle body, it idles down to normal.



I bypassed the fitv hoses.(one hose from the intake manifold to the iacv)

and blocked off the fitv with gasket paper. (Underneath the T.B)

Why does this **** keep sucking!= [

sounds like a TB gasket issue or IM flange issue. isn't the pathway for that hole sealed up against the IM flange? i can't remember.

yep..

turned all the way in..

but that shouldn't even matter if i blocked the fitv off= [

i also bought a new tb gasket today..

i noticed that the tb gasket is a lil smaller than the im opening.

but that shouldnt affect idle like that..
