Installed the throttle body today :)

MyGT · January 18th, 2008, 10:03 AM

Yup, finally got around to doing it and it feels good to have taken the first step in modding my mustang. The only question I have is, it seems to stick when I hit the throttle and idles and little high (~1000). Is there any way I can prevent this and adjust the idle? It's an accufab 70mm by the way.

Thanks
Al

isnt there a idler screw you can turn, this happend to me when i took my intake manifold off my v6 awhile back, you can just turn the idle screw and the idle will go back down, make sure the throttle postion sensor is correct to, you would know if that wasnt on right thu

my throttle cable would get caught on one of the tubes that connects to the plenum. i just re-routed it to go around the tube a different way and it works fine now
