Default Au throttle body

Got bored today, so i took of my throttle body. Thing i noticed was that on the throttle body the adjuster (that little thread on the left) was screwed out about 2 full turns more compared to the one i had sitting im my room, i realized that the butterfly was shutting real hard and actually sticking when shut so i adjusted it in like the other one, i could feel it threw the accelarator pedal so i thought the cable was crap, but hopefully this will fix the stickyness. feels much better by hand now.

1 of them has been opened up a little, and a couple of edges smoothened.

Joe,

Do you have a spare ISC? The one on the SR is on the way out I reckon. Actually it's the one from the Futura, and it's done 170,000 kays. The SR item, on the Futura at the mo, has only done 110,000.

If you do, how many kays has it done?

No worries at all. It's always handy to have a few spares!
