I just completed a pressurized smoke leak check on my intake manifold troubleshooting a high idle RPM problem. Smoke check works very well! No leaks except around the bearings that hold the throttle shaft in the Plenum. Has anyone ever done a similar test? Is it normal to have leakage around those bearings?
Really don't want to have to change them just to find out that wasn't the problem...
