SBD FUEL INJECTION ASSEMBLY AND SET UP INSTRUCTIONS TAPER THROTTLE KIT 2.0L 16V
INTRODUCTION
LIST OF COMPONENTS IN YOUR KIT
SBD would like to thank you for choosing the taper throttle injection kit.
The kit was originally developed by Steve at SBD in 1994 for a customer running a privately funded Touring Car, being very pleased with the result obtained he
decided to run a kit on a standard engine. Since then it has proven to be extremely popular in the sprint, circuit and rally scene all around the world. The taper throttle kit is the basis for most of the performance engines and kits produced by SBD and the throttles are also used in the FIA homologated 1997 Opel Astra Mk III kit car kit.
The kits are extremely efficient and as a direct replacement of the standard induction system, give an incredible 39% increase in power (provided a suitable exhaust system is used) and an almost road car like driving characteristic, very
smooth and progressive.
This system is a direct replacement for the Standard GM 2.0L 16V induction system. It does not use the air mass sensor or air filter box that is fitted to the
Standard engine. It fits exactly same as the Standard unit using the same water hose connections. The fuel rail that is fitted to this kit uses a high pressure coupling system called JIC–6. These couplings are specifically designed for use with a high-pressure steel braided fuel hose, which is by far safer to use than a standard rubber fuel hose and has a greater tolerance to damage. It is recommended that you use JIC –6 couplings and steel braided fuel hoses when fitting your system because of
the increased safety element. There are cheaper alternative coupling and hose systems available, but SBD do not consider these safe enough to use in Motorsport
applications.
The wiring looms have been specially designed to be as neat as possible and to cover as many applications as possible. These are wiring looms are kept on the shelf and are available in both front & rear wheel drive applications. Our range of front wheel drive applications will fit most models of Vauxhalls & adaptations can made to allow these harness to suit other manufacturers e.g. Ford. For any other manufacturers, adaptor harnesses may be required. Our rear wheel drive loom is
also suitable for mid engine cars. Custom made harnesses are available, there would be an additional cost and the manufacturing time for a custom made wiring
loom from the time we receive your signed drawing is between 4 & 6 weeks.
When ordering your kit most of the components should be in stock, which means that we can usually despatch your kit immediately.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION YOU WILL NEED TO KNOW There are many references to cylinder numbers in this document. The position of No. 1 cylinder is the cylinder nearest to the camshaft belt end of the engine and therefore No. 4 position is situated at the flywheel end of the engine. The air temperature sensor should be mounted so it will measure ambient air temperature & not engine bay temperature. If in a kit car then somewhere low in the engine bay. If in an Escort/Manta/Astra/Nova type car, then through the inner wing or in behind bulkhead.

BRAKE SERVO MODIFICATION
If you are using a brake servo on your vehicle you will need to carry out this modification now before assembly of the bodies. For full instructions see page 9 of this instruction manual. To get the maximum out of your kit it is recommended that you have your inlet manifold matched to the inlet mouths of your cylinder head. If you intend to do any porting on the manifold, it must be done now!

Assembly procedure
9
STEP – 1
You will need parts 1,2,3,4 & 5 for steps1 – 4
Note this is only a temporary fit. Do notuse part 6 yet
Using parts 3,4 & 5, assemble No. 4throttle body to No. 4 port on the inlet
manifold, ensuring that the lever arms areat the top as shown.
STEP – 2
Offer No. 3 throttle body to No. 3 port onthe inlet manifold with the lever arm at the
top.Cut operating arm as reqd and on re
assembly ensure you are able to fullyopen butterfly freely.
Note one of the levers on throttle No. 3has 2 extensions; these are for the
throttle cable to attach to (this is theprimary operating lever). Note the
extension that is going away from theinlet manifold (shown in 4) as this will
have to be cut off at a later stage.
STEP – 3
Offer No. 2 throttle body to the inletmanifold with the lever arm at the top as
before.Cut operating arm as reqd again after reassembly checking for free operation of
butterfly.Repeat with body no.1
4
STEP – 4
Once all 3 throttle body levers have been cut tolength, remove all of the throttles from the inletmanifold. You will now need throttle body No. 3
as the primary lever must have one of theextensions cut down or it will foul the airbox /filter backplate. To do this, remove the lever
arm from the throttle body by undoing the grubscrew from underneath the lever and gently
lever it off & cut as shownNote – It is very important that before
removing the lever you carefully note theposition of the return spring, in order to
ensure correct fit later on.

STEP – 5
You will need part 6 for steps 5 & 6
Now you are ready to assemble your throttlesystem
First you must make sure that all of thecomponents you are assembling are thoroughly
cleaned.Starting with No. 3 throttle body, fit the ‘O’ ring
into the groove on the bottom face of the body,stretching the seal slightly helps it locate into the
groove. Do not use any kind of sealingcompound on this seal. Now place the throttle
on the inlet manifold in the No. 3 positionensuring the levers are at the top as before, and
the ‘O’ ring stays in place. Fix the throttle intoplace using parts 3,4 & 5 and tighten evenly.
5

7
STEP – 7
You will need parts 7,8 & 9
Place the throttle system upside down on a table (sothe injector pockets face downwards), you should
notice a mounting next to the No. 1 position on the inletmanifold. This mounting is where the water elbow mustbe fitted. You will see a circular groove for part 8 to be
fitted.Smear a small amount of Vaseline on the ‘O’ ring and
fit into the groove on the inlet manifold, & using parts 9fix the elbow into position, using thread locking
compound on the bolt threads (Loctite 242recommended). Ensure the ‘O’ ring stays in position
when the elbow is fitted.
Fit water elbow to here
STEP – 6
Now fit throttle No. 2 onto the inlet manifold inposition No. 2, following the same instructions as
for fitting No. 1 throttle. When No. 2 throttle isfitted, ensure that the operating lever from No. 2
body fits in between the balancing screw and thethrottle lever spring (shown in 2), and again
ensure the ‘O’ ring is fitted correctly by lookingdown the throttle.
Fit throttles No. 3 & 4 into position being carefulto ensure correct positioning of the ‘O’ ring and
lever arms as before.
You will need parts 10,11,12,13,14 & 15 for steps 8 - 12 Depending on the type of vehicle this system is being fitted to, the throttle potentiometer can be fitted to either No. 1 or No. 4 throttle body. For most kit car and front wheel drive applications the throttle potentiometer will be fitted onto throttle No. 4. This position will be determined by where the connecting socket is fitted on the wiring loom. Refer to your wiring loom drawing for confirmation.

STEP – 8
The throttle potentiometer will need the 3 pin sureseal connector fitted to it. First make sure youhave about 25mm of the red, yellow & green
cables protruding out the end of the black cableshield. Strip 5mm of cable outer off of each of the
three wires and “tin” each wire using a solderingiron or gun. Now using a crimping tool fit the
electrical pins to each of the 3 wires, being carefulto ensure the correct pin is fitted to each wire.Solder each terminal onto its wire once it has
been crimped.Pin 1 – Green wire – Male pin Pin 2 – Yellow wire – Female pin Pin 3 – Red wire – Female pin

STEP – 9
The terminals will now need inserting into therubber Sure seal socket, this is done by
spraying some silicon spray (or equivalent)on the terminals and into the rubber socket,and then evenly pushing the terminals into
position from the back. Be careful to ensurethe correct pin is fitted into the correct
position. The sockets, when fitted correctly,should be flush with the inside rubber part of
the connector & the pin level with them.The throttle potentiometer is now ready to be
fitted onto the throttle system.Note – The pin positions are marked on
the rubber sure seal at both ends. 9
STEP – 10
NOTEIf the throttle potentiometer is being fitted
to No. 4 throttle body follow theinstructions in this Step. If your throttle
potentiometer is being fitted to No. 1throttle body go straight to Step 11.
The throttle potentiometer will only operatecorrectly if fitted the correct way around. For
fitting to No.4 throttle body the throttlepotentiometer must be mounted with the lip on
the side, facing outwards, and the clampingplate will then fit on over the lip.
Note – Do not fit parts 12,13 & 14 yet.Now go straight to Step 12.
10
11
STEP – 11
NOTEFollow the instructions in this step only ifyour throttle potentiometer is being fitted
to No. 1 throttle body.The throttle potentiometer will only operate
correctly if fitted the correct way around. Forfitting to No.1 throttle body the throttle
potentiometer must be mounted with the lipon the side facing inwards (as shown in Fig
24), and the clamping plate will then fitagainst the outside of the potentiometer.Note – Do not fit parts 12,13 & 14 yet.
11
Important – Please read the following carefully, as failure to do so may result in damage to your system. To confirm that the throttle potentiometer is fitted correctly, you will need to gently hold the throttle potentiometer with your hand, and then slowly open the butterflies using the primary operating lever. If the throttle potentiometer is fitted correctly you should be able to achieve full throttle without the throttle potentiometer body moving. If the body does move then fit the throttle potentiometer on the other way around and repeat this step. Fit part 12 and then screw parts 13 & 14 onto the throttle body until they just begin to tighten. Do not tighten parts 13 & 14 yet as the throttle potentiometer will need adjusting later on.
Bosch Green 0280 150 803 injectors cannot be used with 967 ECU
STEP – 12 You will need a set of injectors (not supplied with kit) and parts 15 & 16 for step 26 - 30. The next step is to fit the fuel rail, injectors and injector clips. You will need first to confirm the type of injector you should use for your kit. Refer to table on page 18
12
Cream Injector 0280 150 744
Blue Injector INJ-744-P
Yellow Injector - Peco INJ-480P
STEP – 13
Fit the injectors to the fuel rail by applying asmall amount of lubrication to the rubber ‘O’rings, ensuring that the ‘O’ ring fits squarely
into the cup. Once the injector is fitted, fit theinjector clip onto the top of the injector
making sure that the lip on the injector cuplocates into the cut out on the injector clip,
also making sure the injector clip locates intothe top groove on the top of the injector.
13
14
STEP – 14
To fit the fuel rail and injectors, which wereassembled in the Steps 12 & 13, first you
must remove the top right throttle bodyfixing screw on No4 throttle and also thetop left throttle body fixing screw on No1
throttle.
12
STEP – 15
The fuel rail with injectors can now be fitted intoposition (lubricate with Vaseline or a smallamount of spit works well) by locating the
bottom of the injectors into the pockets in theinlet manifold and gently pushing on the fuel
rail at both ends. The injectors will only press inso far until the mounting arms on the fuel rail
rest against the throttle bodies. Refit the fixingscrews removed in Step 14 and tighten evenly.
15
STEP – 16
Fit the throttle system to the cylinder head using anew inlet manifold gasket and new copper nuts (not
supplied). Do not use any sealing compound. It isrecommended that you remove the front lower studas the shoulder of a copper nut will foul on the inlet
manifold, not allowing it to be tightened. Replacethe stud with a M8x20 cap head bolt applying a
small amount of thread locking compound to thebolt when fitting (Loctite 243 recommended).
As mentioned earlier the water outlets on the inletmanifold are positioned the same as the outlet on
the original equipment, this means that you shouldbe able to use the original rubber hoses andconnecting pipe without having to make any
modifications (where applicable).
16
STEP – 17
You will need a 1/8” BSP taper – 8mm push fitcoupling for this step (not supplied).
The tapped hole in the inlet manifold as shown, iswhere an 1/8” BSP taper – 8mm push fit coupling willneed to be fitted, it is the same coupling that is fittedto the Standard inlet manifold. The tapped hole andthe coupling are both tapered, so caution should be
taken not to over tighten the coupling, which coulddamage the inlet manifold and cause it to leak. Thiscoupling is the bleed for the cooling system to help
prevent air locks in the system.The hole, shown arrowed in red, is an 8 x 1.25mmtapped hole. This hole is where the alternator’s top
mounting bracket should be fitted (for mostapplications). This hole is located in the same
position as the hole in the Standard inlet manifold.

Return to Fuel tank
STEP – 18 You will need parts 17,18 & 19, some fuel couplings and fuel hose (not supplied) for steps 18-20. You need to decide where the regulator will be mounted & from which side the fuel line will be coming from Carefully screw parts 18 & 19 into the fuel regulator, ensuring the blank is on the opposite side from the fuel line, applying a small amount of thread locking compound (Loctite 243 recommended) onto the threads to ensure the couplings seal. Be very careful when tightening the couplings, the tapped hole in the regulator and the couplings are both tapered, and even if slightly over tightened this could cause the fuel regulator housing to crack, which will cause it to leak. Note –Do not fit the blanking plug into the bottom (outlet) of the regulator. Doing this will cause the regulator to operate incorrectly and may damage the unit.
NOTE
The vacuum pipe fitted to the top of the fuelregulator is not used with this kit and can
be left vented to atmosphere.
The domed nut at the top of the fuel regulatoris a locking nut. When the nut is removed it will
reveal a brass centre, which has a slot in thetop. This is the adjusting screw for the fuel
pressure. When adjusting the fuel pressure asdescribed in Setting up instructions, you will
need to turn the adjusting screw clockwise toincrease the pressure and anticlockwise to
reduce the pressure. 18a

Step - 19
Connect loom to various components as labelled. The injector plugs can go onto any injector as they all fire together (Grouped injection). The air temp sensor should measure ambient air temp so should be mounted away from engine heat.

Setting up procedure It is very important to read first and understand the complete set up procedure in order to enable you to set up your throttle system accurately. You should have some assistance for the setting up. All of the steps in the setting up procedure are very critical to ensure correct and efficient running of your kit. Failure to accurately follow any part of these instructions will result in your kit not performing to its optimum.
STEP – 2 Initial setting for throttle potentiometer Switch on your ignition only. Do not attempt to start your engine yet! Tighten throttle potentiometer clamping screws sufficiently so you are still just about able to move the potentiometer with your fingers. Using a voltmeter probe the back of the throttle pot. sure seal on the Red wire (Pin 3) and a good earth. Set voltage to 0.25v, by twisting potentiometer (***This is an initial setting & you must not go back to this reading again. ***). Leave the voltmeter connected, as you will need this later. Screw the throttle stop screw clockwise on throttle no. 3 until you reach 0.30v on your voltmeter.
Grub screws & Locknut
STEP – 1 Visual alignment of butterflies Unscrew throttle stop screw on no. 3 so that it is off of the operating arm and the butterfly is fully closed. Visually adjust remaining butterflies to fully closed by loosening locknut in-between bodies & adjusting grub screw. Do not lock the screws yet, as you will have to adjust them again after starting the engine.

STEP – 3Setting fuel pressure
Set the fuel pressure by switching the ignition switch (or powerswitch) ON. This will purge the fuel system by running the fuel pumpfor approximately 2 seconds. It may be necessary to switch ignition
on & off several times in order to obtain the correct pressurereading, as the ECU turns the pump off when the engine is not
turning. See chart on page 17 for correct pressureThe fuel pressure should be adjusted by turning the adjusting screw
on the regulator, clockwise to increase the pressure andanticlockwise to reduce the pressure.
If you are using a removable gauge, leave it in the system until afteryou have the engine idling because the pressure may change once
the engine has been running.
Fuel pressure adjusting screw Clockwise – increase press. Anticlockwise – decrease press.
Do not start your engine yet! You will first need to set the fuel pressure. Turn ignition on & off to build up pressure as ECU cuts fuel pump when engine is not turning.

Step 4 Starting engine for the first time When idle voltage & fuel pressure have been set, you can attempt to start the engine. You may have to hold the throttle to keep engine running. To get the engine to run on its own you can screw the throttle stop clockwise slightly (Ensuring you do not go above the 0.37v & don’t go more than approx 2 units higher or 1 unit lower than the idle Kg/Ph setting for your kit) until engine runs on its own, even if it’s not smoothly.
Step 5 Balancing the throttle bodies to read the same Engine revs may increase during this stage, unscrew the throttle stop to decrease revs (you can re set pot voltage in next step) to keep it within 2 units above required Kg/Ph setting for your kit. You now need to balance the butterflies using the syncrometer. Start by reading airflow through no.3 body, Adjust No.4 to read the same, then No.2 & then No.1. When all 4 throttles read the same amount of airflow they are balanced. You can now do up the locknuts on the grub screws. Re check airflow & re adjust as necessary.
19
Step 6 Fine tuning airflow & throttle potentiometer You will have to do this step a few times to get everything right. – It’s worthwhile spending extra time & taking care on this stage because if everything is not correct then engine will not idle properly With the engine still running, butterflies balanced insert the syncrometer on No.3 body & set the correct amount of Kg/Ph airflow for your kit (by adjusting throttle stop screw). Once you have the correct amount of Kg/Ph, re set the throttle potentiometer to read 0.37v. Keep checking & adjusting until Kg/Ph airflow & throttle potentiometer are correct for your kit. (RPM will be correct when Kg/Ph is set) Tighten the throttle potentiometer clamp so that it can’t move. – DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN AS THIS WILL DAMAGE POTENTIOMETER Re check all readings again & re adjust as necessary.
