Okay people,
So for the past few months ive had an intermittent P0301 coming and going. After finally triggering a flashing check engine light I decided it was finally time to troubleshoot this bad boy. I got it into my shop, ran a smoke test, and found both PCVs leaking as well as the throttle body leaking behind the throttle cable spool where the rod runs through to the butterfly valve. Now i got the PCVs replaced with factory parts but the dealership wants 320 bucks for a new throttle body, and im a Jeeper so theres no way im payin that. So the real question i need an answer to is....... Do i buy a bored out throttle body from an aftermarket company? 62mm or so.... Pick one up at a junkyard if i can find one.... or does anyone know of any machine shops or carb shops that rebuild throttle bodys, sleeve the rod, or reseal them?
