To make a long story short, i bought a spoon TB from a fellow board member under the impression it was for B series motors when infact it was for the K series... oh well, my mistake... I was able to sell it to someone on the rsx board. well now he is having problems with it, here is what he emailed me, and was wondering if you guys knew of anything to help him? here is our email conversation.
1st:
>i had it installed yesterday...and now my tb gets stuck....for example....few min. ago i went for a drive to office depot and it gets stuck at 3000 rpm....i had to stop at parking lot and move the accelerator/gas wire...and it unlocks.
>
>now, i am thinking maybe the guy sold you...sold you a not working tb.
my reply:
wtf, that is not cool at all. if you want i can contact him. as far as i know, he got it from some guy who told him it would fit on his B16. i'll post on our board to see if there is a way to fix it, the TB looked brand new also.. how often does this happen to you? does it always seem to be at the same spot (rpm wise)?
his reply:
See if you can email him about it. It happens when I press gas hard….! Saturday Night…I was on the highway..with my Hondata ECU Flash….doing about 8800rpm..and it got stuck there. I got so scared..thinking if my motor was blown or something. But later on..it was TB problem…!
any ideas guys? i left the members name out of this post on purpose. when i got the TB it looked brand new, what can this person do to keep it from sticking open?
thanks in adavance guys.
