full throttle

i was wondering if anyone with the cobra throttle body has noticed that it doesnt seem to open all the way?i looked at the back of the throttle lever and it looks like it can be ground down to open more.has anyone else noticed this and if so did you try to get it to open more?may not be a big deal but just thought i would ask.

i bought my TB used, and it was ground down to make it open 100%.

when i get home, i'll post instructions on how to make sure your TPS is correct.

Excellent post Clonetek and great timing

No flame--ok? But shouldn't the ignition sw. be turned 'on' after you position the pins and the tester's clamps? Might prevent an electrical short?

an easier way to do the pins, is to backprobe the wires, like JJ states in the other thread..

LIGHTNINROD: its less than 1 volt... but do it which ever way you wish.
