Vanagon – playing with old gowesty throttle body

I grabbed the tb from a fire damaged van. So the anodizing on the body badly affected and all the meltables gone. That’s the tps and the bearing seals and additional shaft seals.

But the body was good. I blasted it, popped in new bearings, and thought I’d try to make an off the shelf, meaning my shelf, micro switch work as a tps sub.

Oh and I also had to make a cam for the switch , goes on the throttle shaft.

Oh yeah, of course, I made a delrin cover .

This was all just for the exercise. I haven’t tried it out .
