There are 3 hoses that go into the TB, the intake hose and the two hoses that run coolant thru the TB. Neither of the two small hoses would have anything to do with idle speed once the car is warm, so i'm not sure if your problem is related. When you say going to gears at 1500, i'm guessing your talkin about an atx tranny (hence the forum) and it shouldnt be a problem.<P>Off-topic... 900 post :D
