Complete new 1

hey every one i have i assume an xf throttle body i didint get the ford tps with it but the shaft is round with 2 small pins on either side, any one have anyidea about which model throttle body i have and which tps to use?

any1 in brisbane thats done this mod wanna come n help me lol :S

Its not that hard. Get this: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/XF-Throttle-B...2em118Q2el1247 (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?type=3&campid=5335860158&toolid=10001&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fcgi.ebay.com.au%2FXF-Throttle-Body-Adaptor-Plate-VL-Turbo-Honda-EFI_W0QQitemZ170202524614QQihZ007QQcategoryZ32624QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1638Q2em118Q2el1247) And then get a workshop to weld it into your plenum. I guess thats assuming you can remove your plenum...

yeah i saw that but i have no clue what that is or where to get it?

its an attachment for a dremel or similar rotary tool. i got a supercheap version of a dremel for $30 that had the bit with it, it looks like a drill bit but cuts with the side edges rather than the tip. you can get good cheap bit sets at hardware stores http://au.dremel.com/html/home_fr.html

Is there any point of upgrading the plenum on and N/A VL, while doing the XF throttle body. Is the VL's plenum already good enough or will a new one offer more horsepower? cause apparently the XF tb mod will do nothing if the plenum isnt upgraded, anyone no about this?

The pics are off again!!! if u can put em back on it would be good

i just finished this mod it was pretty easy just time consuming. only problem im having is when ill be driving at a steady pace the revs will just drop to nothing randomly then go straight back up again. does anyone have any ideas?

i had that prob and it was the tps set too high, i just set it to switch closer to the stop and made sure it was tight on the butterfly shaft. just a bit of thread tape to stop it slopping around. mine is pretty much perfect now it only took 2 years to sort it out lol

what do you mean closer to the stop? i have already put a bit of electrical tape around the shaft to make it really tight fit in the tps. cheers

hey man are you able to put the pics up agian,am having trouble with the throttle cable part
