Come on now grumblemarc. Why would his Fast Idle Thermo Valve have any effect on the speed his car idles when it's cold? That's just crazy talk.

Hey man, ask a stupid question...lol we're just playing around. Well, grumblemarc isn't, he's constantly angry. But your question is like me saying "hey, I did a custom 'piston delete', now my car won't start. What gives?" LMAO

The fast idle thermo valve literally controls the speed at which your car idles when its cold. So if you take it off...well. You can see where I'm going with this.
