I purchased and installed the Go Westy throttle body this week. It appears
to be well constructed with a new throttle plate, linkage, spring, and
mounting plate for the switch. The remaining pieces, including the switch
were not new (as expected). I dropped it right in with no adjustments
necessary. It significantly improved the drivability of the van, shift
transitions are much smoother now. I'm a happy customer...
