anyone got anything informative to say about the 30/30 vs the 40/40
other than "I think the 30 has smaller openings than the 40"?[/B]

92-95 Proportioning valve parts number:
46210-SR3-013 EX 2 door
46210-SR3-013 DX
46210-SR3-013 CX
46210-SR3-013 VX
46210-SR3-962 Si
46210-SR3-962 LX 4 door <----I have my doubts about these, I looked at a four door DX and it had a 3030
46210-SR3-962 DX 4 door <----
Ok, I am bored, unfortunately I don't have a 3040 only a 3030, so this can maybe help figure out how these work...
First, broken in half, er, taken apart carefully...
Ok, so they have an opening, that has a small plunger that moves up and down, if I had a Dremel, I would cut one in half and look, but I don't....
Now the weirdness, when the two are put together, the plungers push each other down. I really wish I had a 3040 so I could compare the diameters, and a dremel so I could disect one. I have never found any good solid info on the inner workings of these...
So I am guessing the two pushing each other keeps empty space from forming in the lines, and acts as kind of a check valve system, along with giving the proper space to move what where. Anyone have any more info?[/B]
