Water Lines to and from the Throttle Body
#12
its a straight through from the oil cooler to the TB, then from the TB to the mixing at the front.
all you need is a coupler to join the two and then just seal off the two nipples at the TB.
I never really removed mine...which is odd considering those things are the two ------- biggest pains in the asses. Especially if you want to take your intake manifold out.

It would have been nice to remove my throttle body completely when I pulled the top half of the manifold! The Miata is only for summer use for me (damned road salt!) so I won't reap any benefit from a heated TB. Hmm...

fwiw, the coolant only really flows through the idle valve itself, and the coolant should be around 180° which is more or less the same temperature the inside of your engine bay will reach. There's going to be inmeasureable differences in "performance" with or without. Nearly every car in world has coolant running through the idle valve/TB.
