When removing the throttle body heater plate is there 2 plates or just one? If two do you remove both. Anyone done this who can comment on it, and any pics
Thanks

did it last week and no problems so far. i found it easiest to remove the inlet manifold, once you do that all shall become clear. there's also a very good thread on M42club regarding it, linky:

Thanks for this info and the link, did removing the throttle body heater plates make any difference? And did you link the pipes back up or blank them off?
thanks again dude

i linked them up.
i've yet to have i wound up after a long run so i can't really tell any difference, i've done it mainly for reliability reasons becasue the way i see it the less pipe, the less chance of springing a leak.
