tb swap still going
Thursday, February 16, 2006 10:50 AM
okay guys here we go.

Here are pics of me taking the stock and bigger tb apart so i can swap the tb plate from the stock tb to the bigger tb so then it will work on my car. I will have to go to home depot tonight to pickup a small connector since there was only 2 on the bigger tb and there are 3 on my stock tb, but that shouldnt be too hard to do. Also i will have to go home tonight and use my dremel so the door will close fully. Well on with the pics.









Please see that the door isnt closed all the way but i will fix that tonight.








MORE PICS WILL COME AS THE PROGRESS CONTINUES.

THANKS

this is froma 91 beretta 2.3 ho motor and its not a complete 100% swap but not that hard to do. People that dont know much knowledge though please dont even dare to try this.

I wouldnt take a dremel to it if you do that you might be throwing the whole thing in the trash when you are done with it. At idle the butterfly valve is usally cracked open a tiny bit to let enough air in for the car to idle.

I'd check the Idle screws, make sure the spring is seated correctly, and then try it out on the car and see where it idles before I dremeled it.

sorry for the misunderstanding on this.

i just have to dremel a little off the screw so it closes all the way. I cant tighten the plug on the opposite side because the plate wont close all the way yet, so i have to dremel down the screw a bit so it will close all the way. I hope people understand what i am talking about.

Hey Josh. I will get you the paint I have just been real busy. as you can see I used to be in the ORG all the time now I am only here once or twice a week. Sorry about the time I've been making you wait man.
What have you done to the car so far? Have you prepped the car already? Is it only waiting on paint? I will go & try to get the paint tomorrow to see what the guy says about it. He might already have it saved for me to pick up.

Oh and by the way dude I just talked with the guy at the shop about an hour ago and he said that maybe by tomorrow he will give me the paint.


We should have your car ready within 2-3 weeks. And maybe after that later we can work on the Sunfire I just bought.

Sounds Good Josh. I might stop by the dealership today to check on the paint but It might be ready. I guess It's just a matter of paying the guy for it, I'll ask him the exact amount. Doubt it'll be more than $150. Maybe $100-120... Anywho I'll let you know, If I can I will pay for it then you can pay me later when I give it to you.

Ohh and I got your number saved. I am staying at a friend's place for now but hopefully this week we'll have our own apartment and I will reconnect the internet & phone.
