    you're reading the post wrong. i did all my tests with the ICV in the car. after all that i took the ICV out and inspected that. and that was when i realized that it was totally screwed. since then i haven't tried starting the car, i've only looked for vacuum leaks and i found one.


    the leak is part # 6 at the top where it connects to the TB
