any idea of what the linkage on the throttle body 900

Hi,

About the throttle body linkage (this is like a summary)

1) set your TPS first (this in FAQ). If your TPS is working nicely all this while then leave it as is.

2) unhook the old throttle linkage

3) compare the overall length of new to old linkage

4) adjust length of new linkage to match the old linkage (use size 6mm spanner for the adjustment nut)

5) hook new linkage in

6) look at the throttle spool's idle stop, it shouldn't rest in contact, there should be 0.10mm gap (use feeler gauge). If not then re-adjust throttle link's length or adjust throttle cable's slack

7) if you need to readjust as in item 6) then you also need to check for transmission click at wide open throttle

8) with engine off, get someone to floor the gas pedal in car. Listen for transmission click (need a quiet moment here). If there is click then its ok. If no click then adjust transmission cable's slack as needed.

NB: You could unhook the transmission cable off the throttle spool and fully pull it repeatedly to familiarize yourself with the "click" sound

Amarin.
