I have 2 Tb's right now.
1 is a 52mm from a 99 2200.
the other is a 56mm from a 2.3 quad 4
how in the world do the butterfly plates come out. I tried everything. I have no idea how to do.
The reason I need to do this is because I want to use the butterfly from the 2.3l so I can get the 2200 bored out to 56mm.
any ideas??
after you remove the butterfly plate screws it should just come right out but i could be wrong with thsoe TB's. thats the way my Eco came out
04 sunfire auto, mid 15's n/a, and still going
the 2.3 tb i don't think will work.
i test fitted in on the IM and there is a gap and only has 3 mounting holes instead of 4.
and Roy i can't seem to get the stupid bolts out of either I tried for hours. lots of wd40 used..
It might be because i am using a dumbing screwdriver type torx wrench. I might have to buy a socket set torx wrench.
I just took the plate out of the one i got from the junkyard... the two screws will come out.. they're a torx bit.. i don't know what else to tell you.. but the plate will only come out one way.. there's two "bumps" on one side that don't allow it to drop through a certain way. i'm guessing they'll be on the side that's on top when at wot.
so once you take the two screws out... turn it to wot and pull up.
