Does the throttle need cleaning at 20,000 kilometers?

[DiElias]

Cleaning the throttle refers to removing carbon deposits on it. It only needs cleaning when there are carbon deposits; if there are none, cleaning is naturally unnecessary. Therefore, there is no specific mileage requirement for throttle cleaning, unlike oil changes which have a set mileage interval. Whether cleaning is needed depends on the actual situation. Below is some relevant information about the throttle: 1. The throttle is a controllable valve that regulates air entering the engine. After entering the intake pipe, the air mixes with gasoline to form a combustible mixture, which then burns to produce power. It connects to the air filter at the top and the engine block at the bottom, earning it the nickname "the throat of the car engine." 2. The throttle is one of the most important components in today's electronic fuel injection engine systems. Its upper part connects to the air filter, and its lower part connects to the engine block, making it the throat of the car engine. The responsiveness of acceleration is closely related to the cleanliness of the throttle. Cleaning the throttle can reduce fuel consumption and make the engine more agile and powerful.
