I have a new to me early 2.0 throttle body with no spring on the shaft end , whereas my 75 throttle body on my car right now, which was original to the car has a longer shaft with spring on that end where the throttle cable connects - my question is every one i’ve seen on line is the same as my OEM one, the new one that’s from an earlier year 2.0 does not. anyone seen one like this before or can explain these variations?
First picture is my oem TB, second one is the new to me earlier TB no spring on shaft. Phil Attached thumbnail(s) |

just found this thread, looks like my question is answered by post #7, Looks like late cars had the return spring and earlier than ‘74 didn’t on the 914’s. so that’s some 14 trivia |
