Ok so my intake cracked and I have changed a few of these! So I decided I was going to fix this for good on this car! Well I got the ProComp all aluminum manifold! I installed it! (every stock part back onto it! And now I crank it and it idles around 22-2300 rpm. I cannot find any vac leaks! I also took it all the way back apart and found no issues! I really need to get the car going! It seems to be running great just idling way to high! any ideas would be really appreciated!!!
Need Help!!! Im Lost-All ALUM Intake
- Thread starter calypso92coupe
- Start date
So... I called ProComp! They say take the intake back off and take the 3 pieces apart, then add rtv to those parts and re install! wow where was the instructions to this???? Come in fully assembled! This has made me ill! I hope that this finally fixes it though! I am happy with the part just want it to work!!!!
Well... After trying what ProComp told me to do, it still idles up to over 2000 rpm at idle! I replaced the iac valve and still same issue! If you have changed one of these intakes you would understand how frustrated I am! I just want this to work! I think I am going to return this and get an OEM intake and call it a day! any thing you guys think of anything to check or try let me know!

No, But will tonight!
Yes, gaskets look good! I checked them every time and looked good! I got the new ford ones for the install! I'm going to try the carb spray in a few! Will let you know my findings! Thanks for the help! I'm not DA when it comes to working on things but this has stumped me! My termi swap fox was almost easier than this lol! Post findings in few!
Finding nothing still! I think this thing is going to be returned and I will be buying a OEM! Should of done that to begin with! Just thought I was making a little better choice!
just cruise around the intake with a can of wd 40, spray it wherever there is a gasket or o ring at some point the idle will change, that's the vacuum leak. Also recheck the maf and the throttle body connections.
I tried spraying around it already! I have taken it back apart again! I think I'm going to get an OEM intake and call it a day!
srsly, you had to miss something, it's probably not the intake
Ok Im going to install it one last time! Thanks for your help man! This one has just really got me scratching my head!
Why are you yelling so much, lol?!!!!! Good luck with trying one more time.
There is a vacuum line on the back on the intake plenum. Did you install that?
Take pictures of everything installed too.
