Throttlebody
I was curious what the symptoms would be if your throttle body was dirty or clogged? Any information would be helpful. Thanks

...which is what happens when you start my SVX even when its engine is warm!

Randy,
Where does the dirt come from? Do some people leave out their air filter or can leaks develop in the induction tract, after the filter? Trevor.

I agree and since most cars have 'cold' manifolds these days the oil fumes from the crankcase condense in the manifold and cause the greatest portion of the problem.

Thanks Guys for the informed reply which I savvy in full.
You see I am used to playing with nice clean matched and smoothed and yes often cool manifolds. All this power robbing anti smog stuff does not sit well with me and strange as it may seem we are not compelled to use it although legislation is in the offing. However I am not about to tear everything off the SVX as I did with my previous Isuzu Piazza with good results. Trevor.
