Ok I have a 1998 with a dead 2.5 Liter.
I have a full 2000 2.7 Liter with gear box and DME. Dropped the old one out - I realize I need to use the mechanical throttle cable Throttle Body - and I see and understand the mechanical challenge of the crossover tube size difference... two questions - if I do use the 2.5 Throttle body on the 2.7 how do I wire the connectors? the 2.7 has one 6 pin connector the 2.5 has two 3 pin connectors... Maybe this can't work I'm not sure 2 I've also heard get a 996 3.4 Throttle Body - does that solve both the size and connector issues? Can anyone give me a good part number for that? I'd rather use the 2.5 Throttle Body and get the project done - right now I'm not installing the 2.7 until I get this sorted out - easier to solve when not in the car... All advice GREATLY appreciated! __________________ This post was auto-generated based upon a question asked on our tech article page here: |

I would stick to using the throttle for the engine. Otherwise you will be trouble shooting compatibility issues. With the 6 wire, it has motor control wires and 4 TPS wires. I think you will want to get a harness for the 2.7 if you don't have it.
Give our parts specialists a call at 1-888-280-7799. They can help you with the part numbers. - Nick |

need more info!
Nick,
How do you use the TB that comes with the engine? The 1998 is throttle cable and the 2.7 is EGAS I think I could use a 2000 throttle pedal position sensor and wire back to the 2.7 harness but HOW??? For those that have done a swap what the trick??? |
