Re: about to change rear valve cover gaskets need help
wouldn't start so took out the spark plugs and those were covered in oil and the wires are old so I am going to try to change those and see if it starts up.

Don't bypass your BAC valve coolant lines in the TB. All it does is mess up your idle. If you think it keeps your manifold cooler, you're dumb. Its bolted the the cylinder heads. I don't care where you live, its not at coolant operating temperature outside.
Now with Moderator power!

Well it's all back up and running and no I didn't delete the lines, I do think that it's stupid to have coolant lines in the throttle body but oh well, I really didn't want it just chillen on the bottom not doing anything.

Re: about to change rear valve cover gaskets need help
The BAC valve adjusts the idle during warm up based on engine temperature, not ambient temperature. It doesn't matter what climate you live in. You made the right call.

Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.
