The throttle plate does have a spring loaded valve in it. When I nudge it to the side at idle it lets in quite a bit of air. What's the point of it?


The aux air valve is disconnected, and the ports on the manifold are plugged.

I'll check the vent on the side... I didn't mess with that hose much.
