What is the function of the throttle valve?

[IslaAnn]

The function of the throttle valve is to control the air entering the engine. It connects to the air filter at the top and the engine block at the bottom, serving as a controllable valve that regulates air intake into the engine. After entering the intake pipe, the air mixes with gasoline to form a combustible mixture, which then burns to generate power. The cleaning steps for the throttle valve are: 1. Turn off the ignition switch and disconnect the negative terminal of the battery; 2. Remove the throttle cable, intake hose, and screws securing the throttle valve in sequence; 3. Clean the throttle valve with a cleaning agent, using a cotton swab to wipe areas that are hard to reach. The effects of a dirty throttle valve include: 1. Engine shaking during idle; 2. Insufficient power during driving; 3. Increased fuel consumption; 4. Engine stalling easily; 5. Failure to meet emission standards.
