I have a couple questions regarding the Aux Air Valve. Currently I can only start my car with the throttle fully open (accelerator down to the floor) and then have to give it gas for about 2mins before it finally idles on it's own. Even then it's a rough idle, idle clears up after a 10min drive but is much higher.
In other words; Car only starts with throttle open, stalls out immediately if I let off gas, eventually idles at 1k rpm but rough, idles at 1400rpm after drive still slightly inconsistent.
Upon inspection my AAV was only held on by 1 bolt (lower) and I was able to remove it by hand, so it was not tight. I can see a visible slot for air to pass and can manually open it up, is this supposed to be completely closed when engine is cold? I stuck it in the freezer about 45mins ago and it has opened up slightly. I am also unsure as to what hose connects to the T fitting from the AAV, I put a picture below, not sure what is supposed to be connected to the smaller nipple.
Side note; What use is the A/C vacuum reservoir that has the A/C removed? There is a vacuum line from the Plenum that leads to it and mine was disconnected.
Thanks guys.
