Does the Car Throttle Need Cleaning?
1 Answers
Car throttle needs cleaning, and it should be cleaned every 20,000 to 40,000 kilometers. The throttle is a controllable valve that regulates the air entering the engine, often referred to as the engine's "throat." After the air enters the intake pipe, it mixes with gasoline to form a combustible mixture, which then burns to generate power. The depth of the accelerator pedal pressed by the driver determines the throttle opening, which in turn controls the engine's power output and engagement. The steps for cleaning the throttle are as follows: 1. Turn off the ignition switch and disconnect the negative terminal of the battery; 2. Remove the throttle cable, intake hose, and the screws securing the throttle in sequence; 3. Use a cleaning agent to clean the throttle, and for areas that are hard to reach, use a cotton swab to wipe them clean.
