Title: Throttle body and extra jobs?
Post by: bunker on May 22, 2017, 02:50:10 PM
So I'm back in bits again  :icon_scratch: after sorting the battery and starter solenoid.

The throttle is jammed, mainly due to the throttle body sticking and not springing back after its opened.

While I've got her in bits, does anyone have suggestions for jobs to do whilst in in this state?  :icon_mrgreen:

I've lubed the throttle and choke cables and I'm intending to fling in some new spark plugs, but any other suggestions would be welcome  :thumbsup

Sync the carbs. I made a homemade sync machine using youtube, iced tea bottles, and silicone. It works surprisingly well. Also, maybe check the valve clearances if you have time. My two-bits.

Definitely synch the carbs, mine seem to go out just looking at them. Going up to the LR show at Ingliston on Sat, give me a shout if you want me to swing by with my Carbtune.
