6g72 throttle body upgrade
Posted: Thu Sep 03, 2015 8:40 pm
Hi. I've got a soft top Pajero with a 6g72 in it. I'm not sure if anyone has done this throttle body grade but this is what I've done.
I got given a throttle body of the 6g74. It is about 5mm bigger in diameter from memory
Removed the old one
Took the inlet manifold of and opened it up with a diagrinder to suit the bigger throttle body
Cleaned all the filings out of it.
Ground a bit off the intake for the tps to clear
Made the water lines fit for the auto choke
Opened up the wiring so I could make the cable for the tps fit. Was a bit short
Put it all back together and went out and tested it in some mud
I found that it seemed to rev better and had a bit more power out on the open road.
Cheap easy mod that I think works well. Cheers
