    Mk3 Vr6 idle canister????? help

    The little black canister that is attatched to the idle stepper motor and throttle body is busted,
    do I need to replace it with a new one or is there a mod that can be done?

    Cheers

    Which ports need to be interconnected?
    Do you still use the idle stepper motor or did you delete this also?
    Nice pics Thanks for your help on this pete.

    Hey mate, i did this mod on the weekend and it was running fine then i started having a problem with it stalling now.
    I sprayed the ISV with WD40 and that seemed to work but now it's stalling again, is this a tell tale sign of a worn out ISV?
    I hope not.
