Possible to drive two stepper motors

Post by SQLGUY »

Hi folks,

I'm looking at a couple of projects that would be most easily served by dual throttle bodies each with their own stepper-type idle air bypass valve.

Anyone know whether

A) It's possible to wire the two steppers in parallel and drive them both or

B) There's an option for a second ICV from any of the MS variants?

Thanks,
Paul

Since balancing the flow at idle is pretty critical with multiple TPs, I guess this would be tricky?
