Default Correction to TB By-pass

If you are doing the TB by-pass on a 96, the instructions in the Tech Tips could use a little revision.

1. All of the fittings/hoses are 3/8

2. The size of the rubber caps used to plug the TB nipples is relatively meaningless. Eyeball the size of the hole in them. I found some labeled 1/2" that fit good. 3/8" wouldn't go on.
