Was just wondering if you could help me out..

ive done about an hours research and still fairly clouded

there is a what i will call "air reservoir" half way up the intake pipe

that runs from the airbox to the intake mani..

and there isnt much distant between this box and my extractors

it has melted the bottom of this air reservoir and stuffing out my

revs/time as its bringing air in after the oxygen sensor..

and what i wanted to ask is am i able to eliminate this box all together

i believe the on hose plumbed to this box is idle air maybe..

what to do with this so i never get this issue...

sorry if i sound derp haha.. this has just done my head in

its a pain in the backside

Its bringing in air after the afm but BEFORE your O2 sensor. . .to answer your question i believe the part you are describing is (you have pics?) is a resonance chamber , you should be able to replace it with a hardpipe no worries

there is a pic in my original post man..

i was thinking of just replumbing the idle air hose

from the resonance box straight to the intake pipe

with maybe a one way valve attached.

cause i think its just a throttle body bypass for idle air

is this resonance box shaped and made in a certain way for

any reason?

when i removed the hose from the box..

put a sock over it just to test free air sucking

because the intake pipe will allow a bigger air flow

and my car just either stalling or idles rough as guts

is that just a matter of playing with idle revs and/or timing?

i ended up cutting the box off with an angle grinder fibreglassing

the pipe.. then sikaflexing under the fibreglass.. and then coated

the whole lot in black sika just to ease paranoia.. then cut the nipple

for the hose.. did the same.. and left it all over night.. and she runs sweet

makes an awesome induction rumble haha

also did a fair service as in plugs, oil, filters flushed it all.. runs beautifullyy

and heres a pic of what i did lol

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
