Default Re: Throttle body top plate

I was driving my "new" yellow '94 ZR-1 down to Bowling Green last Wednesday when it started raining. I was doing about 60 mph and the wiper blades installed by the previous owner stuck under the hood edge and did not work.

The rain did not get blown or swept or beaded off the windshield. It just got really hard to see. I was lucky to get the car stopped without hitting anything. I had to run the rest of the way to BG with the hood "released" so the wipers would work.

BTW the car did not melt or self-destruct. In fact, it ran pretty well in the rain.
