 TB advise.. I'm having a difficult time finding a part; Basically, what i need is the spring that goes attached to the TB (shit broke off). Do i have to purchase a whole new throttle body or is there any way i can take one off from a loner and make it fit on mine.. I've gone to a couple of junk yards and I'm shit out of luck!

Re: TB advise.. Your best/cheapest bet is probably going to be the junkyard dude. I'm sure you could pull the return spring from a nt throttle body and it'll work just the same. I'll look for one the next time out at the junkyard and pocket it for you if I see one.

Re: TB advise.. Ey edwin if you need the actual spring i might have it since I tried rebuilding and gave up ill look for both springs. I still have that piece that the throttle body cable attaches to where in the pic its circled and says THIS.

Re: TB advise.. I hooked him up with my TB and I told him to mark it with whiteout so when he takes out the springs they have the correct tension so yup I did tell him to do that lol.
