2.6 Throttle body
« on: 03 March 2010, 21:00:39 »

What is the box on the side of the throttle body with electrical connections. When I do a breather clean do I just leave this attached whilst cleaning the the throttle assembly

That is the control for the throttle .. you don't have a throttle cable .. you have "drive by wire"  .. a sender under the accelerator and a motor at the throttle.

Don't damage it .. they are 'kin expensive !!!

Thanks Enwood like driving a airliner then I assume I just leave it attached to the throttle body when I take the body off
