Was hunting a stiff gas pedal issue on our 75 2.0 and discovered that the throttle bushings are worn. Can the throttle body be rebuilt?
Thanks for any help or guidance. Attached image(s)

Thanks for any help or guidance. Adding a buddy to the discussion - @malcolm2 , weren't you having your TB rebuilt and bushings replaced a while back? |

Phil did mine. Very nice work. He adds a few non-original features. I could feel an acceleration smoothness after his work. He replies quickly to your questions and gave guidance get it installed and attached. If you have some cores, he will discount his price a bit. |
