What Are the Common Issues After Cleaning the Throttle Body?
1 Answers
Common issues after cleaning the throttle body include an increase in engine idle speed. This occurs because the removal of carbon deposits from the throttle body leads to an increased air intake. Solutions include adjusting the throttle opening size, performing throttle initialization settings, and adjusting the idle fuel supply. The throttle body 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 generate power. Connected to the air filter at the top and the engine block at the bottom, the throttle body is often referred to as the "throat" of the car engine. The responsiveness of the car's acceleration is closely related to the cleanliness of the throttle body.
