Has anyone swapped from fly-by-wire to manual throttle body ? I have a manual throttle body on another engine but the wiring connectors are different than
fly-by-wire. Also what problems will I have with the ECM ? Adjustable idle speed device (for a rollback bed) is non existent so far and the medium duty truck
dealer told me fly-by-wire never came on this year truck, but I have the truck with factory service manuals. The manuals keep pointing to the cruise control
(which I don't have) or a pto switch (no wires in harness). A manual throttle body would fix all my problems. Thanks for any advice.

Is there any way you could take a picture of the engine and/or throttle body that is on the truck now?

just a though.. you could do some sorta of foot feed push.. or a pull chain to idle the truck up.. (simpler then re-working the motor)...
or a long air piston that pushes the foot feed.. (good excuse to add compressed air to the truck).. (simple approach might be easer..) stay safe Rod |
