BDL Throttle Bodies - How It's Made
|
As you can see, the rubber seal fits perfectly around the shaft, preventing any would-be leaks. Shown here, Carillo screws the butterfly onto the shaft. BDL's throttle body butterflies use a chamfered edge to prevent them from sticking to the walls of the inner bore during operation. After the butterfly is attached, the Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) boss is secured with screws and Loctite, as well as any other holes that need to be screwed to keep the throttle body together and prevent any air leaks. As part of the development process for their throttle bodies, BDL tests each one repeatedly to make sure that the butterfly does not stick due to aluminum expansion at operating temperatures.
