Hey all, got an odd one. I just replaced the large coolant hose that goes from the top of the engine below the intake into the throttle body. While I had the intake off I cleaned the intake and took the allen caps off to spray carb cleaner and take care of the gunk as well as cleaning the nostrils of the throttle body. I also hosed the inside of the plenum a bit with the carb cleaner. Got it all back together and now my idle is not right and I'm not getting any check engine light. I've done a ton of work on the car in the last year including the plugs wires o2's water pump timing belt and pulleys and tensioner seals accessory belt gaskets starter alternator tie rod ends and straps etc? One hint is that there is a bit of white smoke coming from the tailpipe. I'm inclined to think I just have some residual carb cleaner in the system but would like some other opinions. My SHO is a 95 ATX with 115k miles on it. I am the second owner and the original owner took good care of the car as there was no sludge or evidence of abuse to the engine. In fact my mechanic told me he hadn't seen as clean an engine in a while. Ideas?
