Today I have inspected the throttle body and decided it could do with some sprucing up. Looks like mainly cosmetic things, but a few seals look like they have seen better days.
General side shot - Note its made by Weber!
Internal shot - I probably cleaned this in the past. Looks too clean.
Rear shot. Again very clean. I must have cleaned this out before. I did identify that the breather on the right of this picture was blocked. Managed to clear with a paper clip and plenty carb cleaner. Not sure the effect this would have (if any) as it only has a very small (must by a vacuum hose I guess) that goes to the oil cap.
In bits. It was fairly simple to teardown. Looks mostly serviceable with many parts shared with Weber Carbs. I need to identify some new oil seals and possibly some new bushes for the throttle plate shafts. Springs and a few of the cable holders will need plated. I will get the body vapour blasted.
Should look good when its done.
