My Throttle Bodied VTS *23/09/09 *Pics and Video of Engine Added* - Page 4 - Saxperience

After having a few problems fitting the throttle bodies and it spitting flames out of the inlet,it finally works!

I wired in the Throttle Pot earlier, and it started first time.

Its no where near finished,the throttle cable still needs attaching,the wiring needs doing properly and the fuel lines need cutting to make it tidier.

But the main point is it works! And the noise is amazing.

The only problem is that it is running lean at the moment,but my kms always ran lean until it warmed up so need to try it properly and then off to mapping!

Well its died again,When tidying everything up we tried to connect the throttlepot to the loom properly. And since disconnecting it and trying it again it wont work and the KMS shows a reading of good old 22.1

Im just hoping its because the connection to the pot isnt very good so trying it again tommorrow but I dont have any hope.

It is also booked in for mapping next friday but I am unsure if it will make it.

I am gutted tbh.

It's going mikeanics for mapping as it's not too far from me.

I already had the jenveys,I just really liked the look of the atpower bodies and how simple theyare to fit.it would have saved me some problems.

manc · 25th June 2009, 22:29

Nice car and indeed quality mods you have on it, dont give up on it with the final stretch being so close m8e

Mikeanics is a quality mapper and your in safe hands with him, look forward to you results pal
