Ok so im sure this had to be touched on in the past... not going to run a MVB so thats is out of the question... ive searched with no luck so if anyone happens to stumble across a thread with this info can you please link it... for those who have no idea what im talking about the a413 requires a kickdown cable... this informs the trans as to what throttle position the tb is at for gear selection and passing... problem is 46mm tb comes with a slide provision for the cable to attach... the 52 however does not (coming from the v6 with electronic trans)...
Now there is a hole in the plate bracket and it is about the same distance from the throttle plate center.. but it is set about an inch furthere back (25mm for our northern brothers)...
What i want to try is a small extension spring thats is striong enough to pull the kickdown lever from closed to wot but stretch a bit if throttle plate rotation exceed the kickdown lever movement.. BUT being more of a fixed type mounting for the cable rather than the slide action mounting wwill this interfeer with trans operation upon quick thrittle closing? For example wot thru 1-2-3 then snapping itclosed to a big wooosh from the bov then coming down in mph... will the vb act funny if the kickdown lever is closed at say like 100 mph? Does the kickdown lever stay inplace and slowly returns back to resting position as the mph comes down thus utilizing the slide actiin that the 46 has?
I have a theroy that if i use a pivoting spring the throttle plate can still snap closed but the spring will essentially catalever back still being able to let the kickdown return by it self...
Thank all, i hope this make sense...
