Hi guys,

Putting a cg13 into a new home and it would make it much easier if I could remove the idle air valve and waxstat cold start mechanism (for space reasons) from the throttle body...

Will it still run ok without these?

Thanks

"Another question...

Will it cause any issues if I leave the idle valve electrically disconnected too?

Thanks again

i never tried it tbh mate, mine has the i/c/v removed to clear the topfeed rail, and then i blocked the hole under the t/b with a rubber pipe (the shape of the mani holds the plug in place)
with the idle control delete, the ecu uses spark timing to maintain a stable idle, but it is limited in scope tho (and may not cope with aircon or power steering)

Thanks again Frank.

So by the sound of it your idle valve is electrically disconnected?

No worries about air con or power steering as they won't fit either (unfortunately)...
