My 2.0L throttle body has a small hole in the flapper thing(the thing that opens and closes inside the throttle body) and my 1.7L throttle body does not have this hole.
Is this normal? |

Adds a small amount of idle air and keep the plenum from going to extremely high vacuum on rapid closure of the butterfly and thereby sucking a shitload of oil from the breather.
Pretty good answer...Huh? |

Yuppers... Most TB's I've seen have them. I think on some Solex carbs for T1 motors, a trick is to plug that up? I guess the hole is big enough to cause a lean running condition. I never figured that out. Just gave the old Pict-34 the float test and put on something different.
