Hi all
Any ideas where I can get throttle bodies for a 4.2
Or anyone that refurbs.
I can’t find anything online or at salvage.
Greatful for any advice

Worth asking Joolz at Kits & Classics.
He used to swap some out for race ones, or modify them to have thinned spindles and bush inserts that support the shafts securely, thus eliminating the flutter on the butterflies, that can cause the throttle position sensor errors. He might have some or could fix yours?

Motoclan say they can refurbish the bodies

Thanks Byker I have been trying to get hold of Joolz, hopefully he returns my email next week.

Motorclan only do the speed6 and eBay only has the 4.5

Does anyone know the diameter of the butterfly plates inside the throttle bodies, so I can get some replaced.
I don’t have access to the car to take apart and measure unfortunately
