im just about to get my trac butterfly holes welded closed and a bov flange added on my TB. the guy welding it wants all the throttle stuff removing as well because the welding may damage any plastic or rubber components in there. ive got the obvious stuff off the outside but don't really want to start pulling all the bearings and the shaft. did anyone elso who's done this do anything special?

cheers.

I just had mine done and I left all the TPS stuff, ect. on the main butterfly on the TB while it was welded. No issues with melting or anything for me, although I haven't actually run it on the car yet.

Had mine done, and removed everything apart from the throttle shaft and plate.

eyup martin,

it sounds like you didn't remove the shaft bearings or seals?

 

[Martin F]

Nah, too involved.

Although i haven't picked mine up yet or fitted it.
