Cars interesting problems- need ideas

juld0zer · 11-08-2014, 03:30 PM

the only reason i asked is to try and find some trends. the last thing i did before all this happened was completely remove the coolant lines to the throttle bodies. this coincided with the Aussie winter where we saw temps averaging 70F/22c in Sydney.

the issue seems to mainly occur after having the throtte open for a while, such as cruising on the motorway. The problem seems to subside after stopping the motor then restarting after a few mins. The conclusion i am at now is that these throttle bodies must be getting chilled for lack of a better explanation, chilled and then it acts funny. Maybe it compares oil, coolant and intake air temps and goes into some sort of 'ice' mode.

but Phunk says he has driven thru all temp extremes without issue, but the turbos could be keeping sufficient warmth under the hood?
