Re: Stripping throttle body prior to painting and rebuilding afterwards

Hi, I'm planning on powder coating the whole intake I've got the throttle body removed but just want to double check, how easy will it be to re-calibrate the throttle position sensor when re-fitting?

Also I think there is another position sensor for the traction control I think? If someone could please confirm.

The sensors are easy enough to position, details in WSM.

 

Reassembling the butterflies, ramps, springs and stops correctly will be the challenge.

 

Cheers David, I do like a challenge! (not) :)

wsm on the home page isn't working for me at the moment.

Throttle body strip and reassembly is an art, get yourself an un-tinkered with spare for reference, or you'll stumble.

 

Can be very dangerous if you get it even slightly wrong.

 

Try the WSM with another browser, or better still get a hard copy.

 

It's ok now David, got it working in chrome.
