FAQ_Q1 Are your new throttle bodies the same design as O.E.?
FAA_A1 The new electronic throttle body is engineered and manufactured to match the O.E. design.
FAQ_Q2 Will I have to modify anything on the vehicle to install your new throttle body?
FAA_A2 When installing the new electronic throttle body, there is no need to modify the vehicle for installation.
FAQ_Q3 What’s an electronic throttle body?
FAA_A3 The electronic throttle body is a powertrain component that has a plate, motor, and integrated position sensors which are utilized to regulate the amount of air entering the engine by opening the throttle valve to a desired angle via commands from the vehicle’s powertrain control module or throttle actuator control module.
FAQ_Q4 What happens when an electronic throttle body fails?
FAA_A4 When an electronic throttle body fails, the controlling module will illuminate the MIL/SES/CEL. The module will then activate a fail-safe mode operation and gradually reduce the engine’s speed back to an idle RPM.
FAQ_Q5 What causes the electronic throttle body to fail?
FAA_A5 The most common failure in an electronic throttle body is the integrated throttle position sensor. The ETB is equipped with high and low voltage reference throttle position sensor for redundancy. Either one of these sensors could fail, or possibly both.
FAQ_Q6 Is there anything that has to be done after installing the replacement throttle body?
FAA_A6 A relearn calibration procedure is necessary after installation of replacement throttle body.
FAQ_Q7 Can I purchase a throttle body with a bigger bore to increase horsepower and improve my throttle response?
FAA_A7 Swapping your throttle body for one with a bigger bore is not recommended. The throttle bodies we sell are specific to the application.
FAQ_Q8 Do you sell throttle body spacers?
FAA_A8 We do not sell throttle body spacers, nor do we recommend the use of a spacer.
FAQ_Q9 The O.E. throttle body has coolant hoses attached. What’s the purpose?
FAA_A9 The purpose of the attached coolant hoses is to keep the throttle body warm by the transfer of heat from the coolant to the housing, preventing moisture from freezing between the throttle body bore and throttle valve during extreme cold temperatures.
FAQ_Q10 Is it OK to bypass the coolant hoses?
FAA_A10 No, bypassing the coolant hoses is not recommended. There are cases where we sell units without coolant pipes, because we are following O.E. supersessions where the pipes have been removed. Instructions are provided for rerouting coolant hoses.
FAQ_Q11 Do all throttle bodies have an ice-breaker mode for extreme cold starts?
FAA_A11 Not all throttle bodies have this feature, where the throttle valve is reversed from its normal movement by the control module, which breaks up any ice formation between the throttle bore and valve. This feature is based on application.
FAQ_Q12 What else does the throttle body control other than idle air bypass and acceleration throughout driving range?
FAA_A12 The throttle body is also part of the cruise control, traction control, stability control, and pre-crash systems, as well as other systems that require engine torque management.
