Learn More About Throttle
The throttle body is a critical air intake component that regulates the volume of air entering the engine. Responding to driver input, it uses a butterfly valve to control airflow. In modern cars, this is often electronically managed. A malfunctioning throttle can cause poor engine response, hesitation during acceleration, or rough idling, significantly impacting the vehicle's driveability.
