Default BEWARE 95transamlt1

I sold him my ported TB for 50$. Told him in detail about how I had damaged a coolant line on the TB and the TPS sensor. Sent him mine, 2 weeks later I get his, and it has 2 large cracks, both of the sensors were missing instead of just the TPS as we aggreed, and the throttle blade had been drilled out.

So now I have a cracked TB, and my car idles at 1500RPM with the ses light on due to the hole in the tb.

Anyone know where I can get a new throttle blade?

There is a new sponsor here that would have traded you for a really nice one - I'm trying to pull up his information for you (new=hard to find).

Yea he was going to buy one of my ported tb's then he pick up the one i did for you. I would not have given him his core return back but i know you guys agreed on swapping. Thats not right that he gave you one that was drilled out and he probably drilled out the other one already. I believe he owes you about $50 for a new core. Believe me you will never find a way to get a new tb blade. I pay a guy $20 to weld up the blade.

If he agrees to pay you for this. Let me know and i can probably get you a welded up blade that is like new and i can drill it to stock or even ship it to you undrilled and you can set it as you like. I also have sensors to sell. I can send you both sensors for $20.

I agree that he is in the wrong and got a great tb for $50, and needs to fix this. TIm

Yea phoenix64 is a great guy to deal with and the ported tb he sold was one of mine. 95transamlt1 got a great deal for $50 and should have returned you a stock tb in perfect shape. I agree he owes you. Thats not right that he unloaded a usless core and got a great tb in return. post up some pics of the tb he returned to you so we can see how bad it is. Tim

I need to get you to put up a stand out side banner, you are hard to find sometimes though I know where that thread is.

You also need to ask buyers to leave more feedback in the appropriate forum too. Never hesitate to ask for that
