Rounded off bolt in Throttlebody.......time for a new one!
Well, after trying to fix my Fast Idle Valve thing on the Throttlebody on my B16.....I rounded a bolt..
This damn thing is hard to get to (have to comeup from bottom to get to bolts!
Anyways, I'm too feedup right now.....I think I just wanna get a new throttlebody and start from scratch.
What is a good Throttlebody to get with Fast Idle Valve already installed.? BBK ? or what ? Good priced too please

Most aftermarket throttle bodies either eliminate the FITV or they dont come with one. You will have to use your current valve. However, if its just a bolt, I would just replace that and stick with stock TB and FITV.

The only thing is when it's really cold it takes a fw more cranks to start up. I haven't seen any aftermarkte TB that retains the FITV. BTW it's easier to remove the bolts on the FITV when the TB is removed from the intake mani.

Plus aftermarket TBs are a waste of money unless your putting it on a strictly track car..
