That sounds good for the bottom,the thing on top is zinc plated and bell shaped with a hose going in the top of the TB, i see the three bolt holes and the hose connection on your TB but all that hooks to it is not there anymore. Was this on yours, it looks important?It also looks like it stops throttle from going to far fowards and closing to far?Isnt there a hole in the middle top of your TB,i think i see the hole there thats where the hose connects.I dont have a digital cam but i can get you pics if you think that will help you help me.thanks . Actually you have the two holes on top but the spot where my third hole is there is no hole on yours?And what did you do with the hose on the bottom of the max TB?thank you here is the vin for the TB if that means anything jn8dr07y31w520330

My TB had no holes in the top. Is your TB from a 3.5L pathfinder?

They look the same exactly, but in your pics i can see the spots but there not tapped,if you look behind the word hitachi on your TB as if your reading it you will see a step sticking out ,on yours its closed but on mine their is a bung sticking out with hose attached with hole thru to TB.And if you hold it like your reading hitachi two inches to the right there are two almost round things about a inch apart,this is what my idle control valve is bolted to.I just got off the phone with junkyard its from 2001 3.5 pathfinder.weird.

With all the stuff this guy has I would expect him to be in the 12's.
He definitely needs to put slicks on his car.

Hello mardigrasmax, after taking of my max TB i noticed two coolant lines on the bottom of the TB did you join these together with a metal tube or ? And the one vacume hose what was done with this? Thank you, great job with your times!

Yes just join the coolant lines with a hose coupler. The vac line just needs to be taped int a vacume source that drawes from the same location, could eother be from in front of the TB plate of after, make sure where ever you tap into has the same relative vacume draw location.
