Throttle body repair shop
Looking for shop that will replace butterfly shaft on my 1989 throttle body. Don’t want to buy kit and do it myself

Bought two of them. Had to send both back. Throttle would stick open while driving
bought bbk and it worked fine except oem duct would not fit over intake and I don’t like look of smooth duct

there is a company selling through Amazon called Throttle Body Shop. Not sure how to contact them directly though. I don't think Amazon will tell you. I bought a rebuilt unit from them that works good. I was having similar problems as you.

I wish, for your sake they did. Unfortunately, too many people bought into "Bigger is Better" and they all want the 1000 cfm TB, 58mm maybe? I had someone put that on a stock C4 (L98, IIRC). Felt much better and faster. Too bad the track consistently showed it was a hair slower.

Has anyone used the over haul service from rock auto. For 100.00 they say among other things they replace shaft bushings
