Default Help!

I don’t know if anyone can help me but I have taken the throttle body top piece off to change the plastic bit inside but I can’t see the original one to take it off!!

Brilliant - thanks chaps that’s just what I wanted! I’ll tackle that next weekend.
Just quickly, I found that the plastic pipes going in to it are fairly stiff and trying to twist the unit out the way I was worried about weakening them.
Should I be worried or can they take a lot? Can they be pulled off?

Thanks again

Kev

The plastic pipes are quite strong Kev, just be aware of the 'T' Pieces that join them together as these can snap easily.

Just by way of a positive suggestion, expanding your title to include what you need help with will generally bring more replies.
