Where is the throttle located in a car?
1 Answers
The throttle of a car is located behind the air intake, between the air filter of the intake system and the engine block. Throttles are categorized into: 1. Traditional engine throttle: The operating mechanism works via a cable or rod, with one end connected to the accelerator pedal and the other to the throttle linkage plate; 2. Electronic throttle: It uses a throttle position sensor to control the throttle opening angle based on the engine's required power, adjusting the amount of air intake. The throttle is a controllable valve that regulates air entry into the engine. After entering the intake pipe, the air mixes with gasoline to form a combustible mixture, which then burns to generate power.
