[quote]Also some genius (I use the term lightly) decided to have a metal butterfly in the intake while the rest is plastic so when it is cold out I have to kick the gas pedal pretty hard just to get it to move and have to keep it slightly pressed or it locks up again. That has been an issue since day one, which I could fix with aftermarket parts but shouldn't have to.[/quote] So the housing/throttle body or a portion of it around the butterfly valve is plastic? What a way to cut costs, it boggles the mind why you would skimp out on essential engine operation components. What vehicle so I can research this lol?
