so i had nothing to do at work, and i figured id bypass my throttlebody... sometimes i just get the urge to do something constructive and without alot of options at work i choose to mess with my truck... anyway i found a pecks fitting in the workshop and went out to the truck, i disconnected the pass side hose(lets call this Jose') then i disonnected the drivers side hose at the TB (JosBe) upon inspection i reallized that this hose is a mere 4-5" long tops so i reasoned that with enough slack i can just run Jose' to the fitting on the drivers side of the intake manifold which makes the TB bypass a totally FREE MOD! heres a pic of how i rerouted Jose' from the pass side of the radiator

 

heres one of Jose running under the TB

 

Now here is Jose' connected to the manifold on the drivers side. and that is how i did the Throttlebody Bypass Totally Free!!! dont pay for ANYTHING! (i actually made 12.50$ because i did it at work in less then 30mins lol) i wasnt saitisfied leaving the hose laying on the manifold so i grabbed a ziptie and took up some of the slack to hold it suspended in the air but it probably would have been fine as is... hopefully this saves a bunch of us the 5-10$ ppl charge for the fittings and hose clamps

 

I bet you gained at least 15 hp from this mod. Thank you for sharing with all of us.

 

lol this has been done since 99 when these trucks came out by just about everybody. but good job anyway

 

ja ja ja ja
Kick him in the nutz why dont ya.

 

i know i didnt gain anything... but all that ive read has said you need a pex fitting and hose clamps... ive done it for free, NO where have i found it done for free, always about 7$ or so... but yeah im a stupid f#ck, thanks... just trying to save everyone some cash, but thanks for the insults

 

well thanks for giving everyone another option for this mod! penny saved is a penny earned

 

If saving $7 is that big of deal to you, you might want to find a new hobby...

 

Dude, its this kind of small stuff that is fun to do and keeps ya excited bout working on your truck. Good deal. I remember my first coolant bypass LOL

If people dont like it tell them to suck a ****. haha
