I got shafted on a throttle body deal by civicdrgrcr... well to make things worse .. after i had it rebored at the machine shop... and have my TB uninstalled .. i noticed this TB wasnt even for a B18B OBD I... can you please help me properly identify it so i can sell it


...No FITV underneath the throttle body
...it was 58mm and got bored to 62mm
..."GF" on the top
...throttle cable monting stand has the letter "M" marked


my guess is its off a B18A ... techiezz please help a shafted brother out

the IAC valve opening is on top, but the valve, obviously, is not there, it kinda looks like an accord TB except for the bottom part and no FITV. I don't think i help at all, but o well, bump

 

What size is the bore?

The opening on top is for the MAP sensor.
Looks like a d series to me.

 

its out of a 1gen b16 the valve that you are looking for is on the intake man.

 

it was 58mm and got bored to 62mm and a Type R throttle body gasket fits it fine


so i got D16 and B16 ? Any other guesses would be appreciated .. wanted to get it properly identified.... soo i dont shaft the buyer

 

It's a 96+ LS or B16A T-body.

Not a SIR 1 or 90-93 Teggy.

 

i think you might be right ... im looking at pics .... they show 2 different throttle bodies for 96+ LS

-----------------------------------------------

The second picture looks like it could be it ... Anyone know why one has the valve underneath and the other doesnt ? is one for an Auto and one for manual ? Did a different one come with a different Trim level ? thanks

 

And my next question of course ...

I have a 1995 LS .... The throttle body is the style with the FITV underneath ... now can i put this OBDII style throttle body w/ no FITV on my 95... and just hook the FITV lines to it ? can i put my Map sensor on top as well ? would this cause any problems ? CEL's ?

 

I was thinking that it's an OBD2 LS... I don't really think that it's a 1st gen B16 because they don't have the bent coolant passage in the TB... The passage for them just goes straight through...

thats definitely an OBD1/OBD2 throttlebody.
I can see there's an o-ring gasket for a top mounted MAP sensor which is only found on US 92+ civic & 94+ integra tb's. My guess, it's an LS TB. Although, I'm not to familiar with which OBD1/2 TB's had the coolant crap mounted on the bottom side of the TB. I know that an LS tb looks idendtical to an Type-R tb, with only the bent coolant tubes as seen in your pic..

 

Thanks guys .. im pretty sure now its an OBD II LS throttle body ... ill make a new thread for the compatiblity question .. thanks again!!
