Throttle body swap
Hi, I'm new here to the protege forum.
I'm coming from the mazda323performance.com for some help
I have a 1991 BG 323 hatch with the 1.6L sohc (B6E) engine with 5-speed trany
if you don't already know, the b6e throttle body is quite restrictive by havin a large lip inside of it. I've inquired about this on the 323 forum and found that the TB is interchangible with the protege and escort gt engines, which have a smaller or no lip in them.
Earlier this week I was geting parts at the closest j-yard and I stumbled upon a protege in a part of the yard which I had not yet explored. I aquired two things from the protege, one was a gauge cluster with tac and the other was the full size throttle body. The protege was an automatic which ment it had a different position sensor.
Now, after looking closely at the two throttle bodies, I determined that the position sensors can be swaped.
here's my question:
when I swap the sensor, how do I position it so that it reads correctally?
oh, and I will be porting the intake plenum so I have the full benifit from the swap
