Reply to "EFI heavy throttle/ spring load"

Hi Anders,

I am not sure I completely understand your setup but I will say that it is a very good idea to have return springs at the throttles to ensure positive throttle control. Most sanctioning bodies require them (for non drive-by-wire) and for good reason. The are your end of line safeguard. Many good quality throttle bodies have built in springs.

Have you checked your throttle cable? They can add resistance.

Most multi throttle body systems I can remember had some sort of spring for the throttle body(s) and a spring (or springs) at the bell crank or at the end of the cable. The intermediate linkage(s) have a little adjustment so throttles can be sync'd and to be able to adjust the idle.
