Thank you for purchasing the Poweraid Throttle Body Spacer. Please read the instruction manual carefully bef o re p r oc eeding with the installation. Contac t AIRAID @ (800)
498-6951 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM MST Weekdays for questions regarding fit or instructions that
are not clear to you. Your Poweraid Throttle Body Spacer was carefully inspected and
packaged. Check that no parts are missing, or were damaged during shipping. If any
parts are missing, please contact AIRAID.
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable!
Loosen one bolt and remove the beauty cover. Pry
the tube from the clamp on the radiator hose.
Loosen the hose clamps on each end of the intake
tube and remove the tube.
3. Using a 4mm socket, remove the three studs that
hold the throttle body to the intake manifold. No
need to remove the throttle body, leave it hang
where it is.
2. Using a 10mm socket, remove the three nuts that
hold the throttle body to the intake manifold.
4. If you have an electronic throttlebody, (no
cables) skip to step #6. Using a 5/16” socket, re-
move and save 3 bolts that hold the throttle cable
bracket to the intake manifold. (Disregard steps
#4, #5, and #8, if you are working on a 8.1L ).

5. Install three 1/2” extension plates (#5) using the
provided flat head countersunk bolts(#6). Point the
long end towards the radiator, and snug them down.
7. Install the top bolt (#2) and washer (#3) first,
run it in a few threads with your fingers, leave it
loose, and then align the two bottom holes and
install the bolts and washers. Use caution not to
cross thread the bolts. Do Not Over Tighten The
Bolts!
6. Place one fiber gasket (#4) between the
Poweraid spacer (#1) and the throttle body. Make
sure the flat face of the Poweraid spacer is against
the throttle body with the bore extending into the
intake manifold. Use caution to retain the fac-
tory o-ring gasket on the intake manifold.
8. If you have an electronic throttlebody, (no
cables) skip to step #10. Re-install the throttle
cable bracket and the 3 factory bolts removed in
step 4. Some minor adjustments to the extension
plates may be necessary to get all three bolts to be
aligned in position.
9. Inspect & test the throttle linkage for full open and closed
travel before driving. Some cruise and kickdown cables may
require adjustment. Please refer to vehicles service manual
for proper adjustment.
10. Re-install the intake tube and tighten the
hose clamps. Re-install the plastic holder from
step #1.
Re-install the beauty cover and bolt.
Re-connect the negative battery cable!
Included with your Poweraid Spacer is a sticker with a California Air Resources Board
(C.A.R.B.) Executive Order (EO) number. This sticker must be placed in plain view inside of
the engine compartment. Failure to do so may prevent you from passing a smog inspection.
