Did my throttle bodies today. Actually pretty easy once you get to the bodies. On a scale of 1-10 I would say 5. However on a scale of 1-10 to get the fuel tank to line back up, I would say 10+!! What a pain in the ass! It is a good thing I had two of my friends to help. I can not see you lining up the tank by yourself unless there is a secret way of doing it. If there is, please let me know.
The throttle bodies weren't to out of line. #1 and #4 were off by 10mm compared to #2 and #3. Once I did the sync I took it for a quick ride on the Hwy. The 70-80 MPH range vibration is gone! Now that I know how to do it, there is no reason to pay a stealer $150-200 range when I can do it for free in less then 45 mins. Well 15 mins for the bodies and 30 mins for the tank.
