Subject: Re: What are the holes in plenum floor (behind TB opening) for? by bogus on 2011/2/5 5:37:37 there is coolant in the base. the tb coolant is theoretically designed to prevent blade icing, but gee, do you know how cold that would have to be? And after 10-15 min run time, it would have migrated enough heat to melt anything, anyway. EGR heat? I am sure there is some, but I doubt it's that much by the time the gas gets to the intake. I have never put a temp probe on it. Also, the egr inlet has a heat proof gasket that I suspect stops some heat, too. You can figure the intake manifold is going to be about 200F at full op temp. As for the rest of the ports, I would have to take a look. |
