Is a Lighter Car Accelerator Pedal a Good or Bad Thing?
1 Answers
Throttle becoming lighter is a good thing. Below are the functions of the throttle and reasons for abnormal noises: Functions of the throttle: The car engine throttle is controlled by the pedal, also known as the accelerator pedal, which is the fuel supply control device for the vehicle engine. The function of the throttle is to control the engine throttle valve opening by adjusting the pedal pressure, thereby regulating the air intake and controlling the engine speed. Reasons for throttle abnormal noises: Carbon buildup in the throttle valve causing sticking—clean the throttle valve; wear of the throttle pedal support pin—apply grease or replace the support pin; poor installation of the throttle cable—for electronic throttles, inspect the throttle pedal mechanism and the throttle pedal sensor.
