Where is the throttle position on Aoling?

The throttle is generally located at the engine intake, behind the engine air filter and in front of the intake manifold. Introduction to the throttle: The throttle is a controllable valve that regulates the air entering the engine. After the air enters the intake pipe, it mixes with gasoline to form a combustible mixture, which then burns to perform work. It connects to the air filter at the top and the engine block at the bottom, and is referred to as the throat of the automobile engine. Classification of the throttle: There are four types of electronic throttles: electro-hydraulic, linear solenoid, stepper motor, and DC servo motor. However, electro-hydraulic and stepper motor types are rarely used in automobiles due to their low control precision, while the linear solenoid type is seldom applied because of its high power consumption.
I've been driving trucks for over a decade. On Foton Aoling models, the throttle body is usually located at the front end of the intake manifold in the engine compartment, near the air filter outlet. When you pop the hood, you'll spot that round valve typically connected to the intake pipe. The throttle controls air intake volume affecting throttle response - if it gets dirty or carbon-fouled, you'll experience weak acceleration and unstable idling. Based on my experience, the throttle position remains quite consistent across different Aoling models, always conspicuously placed for easy access. I recommend cleaning it every 20,000 km using dedicated throttle cleaner to spray inside the valve body, but avoid harsh scrubbing to prevent sensor damage. If you notice significant throttle lag, inspect it immediately - post-cleaning performance improves noticeably with some fuel savings too. When in doubt, don't force it - professional mechanics handle this job safely and efficiently.
