Power Valve Spacer
Hi
I have a power valve spacer installed on my EC300 (07). It came from the dealer with it installed. If I were to remove the spacer, would I have to make any jetting changes?

You should not need to re-jet.
On the 300 the spacer does not make much difference, whereas on the 200 it is essential. Kim

Cool, thanks Kim. Can I use the same gasket, or would I need to get a new one?

I always replace gaskets just because but if you are carefull not to rip or tear it you could throw on some sealer and probably get away with it.

I would be interested in buying that spacer
from you, for the right price, if you were in the U.S. Anyone seen one of these or know of one for sale in the U.S.? I know about the LTR item. Kind of spendy for me at the moment though. Thanks, Jeff |

Why not make one yourself?, jigsaw and some aluminum or even better the stuff that they make circuit boards out of, gskt as a template, voila.

Thata how this one was made. The local dealer went to a machiene shop and they whipped up 20 for him.
He was retailing them at ZAR 300.00. Must have cost him R50.00 to make. thats like $5.00! LOL! For us to import the LTR would cost like R6 - 700 +

WideBear. Yes that would be an option. I suppose I could (hack) one
out of a chunk of Alu with a scroll / Jig saw. I know I could not do a sweet looking of a job as a real machined piece, but, I guess it would work. Like you said. I could use some other material that would be easier to cut. Like fiberglass or a dense plastic. Ya got me thinking. I could use several pieces of different thickness and tune to suit. I'd just need several gaskets to sandwitch between the pieces....hmmmm. Back to the drawing board. Thanks, Jeff |
