Think I've made an expensive mistake !


Recommended Posts

Posted

Removed both my throttle bodies to send to mopedmark to get polished ..... Thought I'd give them a good clean before I sent them , so did and manually moved the butterflies to clean ...... Now stumbled across a few threads saying this is not good :(

 

Will they be ok ?

 

I disconnected the battery before removal but have moved the butterflies by hand , is there anyway to undo what I've done ?

 

Thanks for your help

You should be fine... I moved mine manually loads before I read it was a no no... just did the peddle dance... which was an f'in nightmare and everything was fine.

Just make sure you fit the gasket there as its a must and do the pedal dance. All will be fine.

 

Gasket ?

 

These are going on to my stillen inlet manifold , there are 2 'o' rings that they bolt to .......I guess this is what your talking about ?

Update .......

 

All is ok !!!!

 

Recieved the throttle bodies back from Mr moped mark ..... Fitted and no issues what so ever :)

 

Actually not completely true ..... I forgot to connect on of the throttle bodies wiring clip ... Started the engine . All lights on and flashing like Xmas tree!! Pants I thought ! But soon realised what I had done . Then because of this had the engine light on and a fault code ..... But as luck would have it got my little obd wifi thing through ( same as superstu ) quickly linked it to dash command app and turned it off and wiped the code. What a great little gizmo it is .

 

Then I went for a drive and scared myself in the damp condition and came to the conclusion I don't need any more than 465bhp !!!

 

Happy days

I generally do ..... But when you climb trees and have a chainsaw dangling pretty close to yours balls as your day job it takes quite a bit to get my adrenalin going !! Happily the zed did that tonight :)
