Butterflies again


Recommended Posts

Hoping to get some time on the car this weekend and looking at fiddling with the throttle linkages etc

 

I've an inlet airflow meter, more tools than halfords and a reasonable idea how to use them

 

This is my thinking

 

With the idle set to 1200 rpm adjust the throttle linkages to give the same airflow through each inlet pair. This may be more reliable across the Rev range if I fit the double ended ball jointed throttle linkages

 

Simples?

 

Or have I no idea what I'm talking about?

 

Thanks, gary.

Definitely balance them well off idle. Use the throttle cable to increase engine speed so any differential slack between the throttle bodies is taken up and it's more comparable to real driving. Get the links as long as you can to ensure that you get full throttle. Take your time.
