Owners of Accufab throttle bodies, please make sure that when you install the throttle cable to the Accufab throttle body that you place a throttle stop underneath the accelerator pedal at the point of WOT to prevent the throttle cable to put any strain on the throttle shaft.
The accelerator pedal should hit the stop at the same time than WOT, if you do not do this adjustment you will put too much strain on the throttle body shaft at WOT which in turn will cause the throttle shaft to break at the point where one of the two screws goes threw it. This will cause the screw to fall in the engine and possibly cause major damage.

Moderators please make this a sticky.
