when the spacer was on the throttle had a lag...and when you turn the truck off it made a crazy sucking noise immediately after the engine stopped.

when i took it out the throttle works like you would expect it to and the sucking noise doesnt happen anymore.

Sounds like there was a vacuum leak. That would explain the lag and the sucking sound when you shut it off. But, without seeing that setup, it may have been something else.

I'm removing my TB spacer & lost the stock bolts. Does anyone know the dimensions of the 4 stock TB retaining bolts for a 1998 Ram/Magnum 5.9 ?
