*****DO THIS ONLY AFTER YOU PROPERLY ADJUSTED THE VALVES CLEARANCES*****
- Warm up the engine to the normal operating temperature
- Turn the key off
- Disconnect both idle actuators connectors
- Turn the key on, but do not start the engine
- Reconnect both idle actuators connectors
- Turn the key off
- Disconnect both idle actuators connectors
- Turn the key on, but do not start the engine
- Reconnect both idle actuators connectors
- Turn the key off
*** Now the idle actuators should be synchronised ***
- Turn the key on, but do not start the engine (this will place the actuators in a suitable position for the current engine temperature)
- Disconnect both idle actuators connectors (this will lock the actuators in that position)
- Connect the Twinmax or whatever device you use for vacuum comparison. I use a CarbMate TS-111
- Start the engine
- Give all the slack to the TB cables (screw the adjusters all way in)
***At this stage the throttle bodies should be balanced. If they are not, it means someone messed up with the “no-no” screws***
- On one of the TB (I prefer on the left one) unscrew the adjuster till the CarbMate goes out of balance. Screw it back one turn and lock it with the nut.
- On the other cylinder do the same as on the first one, but do not lock the adjuster.
- Pull the throttle and lock it to have around 2500-3000rpm. Do not attempt to hold it with the hand, as you’ll not be steady enough plus you need both hands to adjust the TB
- Adjust the TB cable on the second cylinder (the one you left the adjuster unlocked) so the throttle bodies will be balanced and lock the adjuster with the nut. Please note that while locking it with the nut the TB balance may be slightly affected, so slightly readjust so you keep the TBs balanced.
Free up the throttle to return to the idling position and double check if the TBs are balanced on idle as well as on 2500-3000rpm. Hold the RPM steady for a few seconds at each value you want to check the balance at.
- If all good, plug the idle actuators connectors.
- Turn the engine off
- Disconnect both idle actuators connectors
- Turn the key on, but do not start the engine
- Reconnect both idle actuators connectors
- Turn the key off
****Done****
