When i was unbolting my stock throttle body that has never been removed, i unbolted all the nuts and before i even broken the gasket i noticed that some coolant fluid thatstarting to leak from the bottom of the tb. so i didnt do anything. and i put everything back together. When i started the engine i noticed it idle higher then normal. and i started to hear a hissing sound. when i turned of the engine it the hissing was still there but died down. i just got done replacing the pcv. is the coolant leak normal when takeing off tb? what is the hissing sound. is it the throttle body gasket?
coolant leak for throttle body?

You can also get a coolant splice and disconnect the 2 coolant hoses from the EGR spacer and splice them together. Unless you live up north where it gets extremely cold, you do not need these attached. They are just to help warm up the throttle body faster. It will increase your power a small fragment when disconnected because everyone knows, motors run better when they are cold. If you are running a cold air induction system. these hoses being connected defeat the purpose of COLD air induction.
