It could be a stuck throttle shutter inside the carburetor. Or, some kind of air leak into the motor. The nature of the air leak would depend on the make and model of the saw. Could also be caused by a damaged, or improperly adjusted carburetor.

What does throttle position sensor have to do with enhanced traction system?

The throttle position sensor is used by the computer to know when you accelerate or decelerate and how much, or for that matter if the throttle is static or has gone to idle. The enhanced traction system would use that information as well as information from various other sensors to know how to react to any given situation.

What is the Reaction if throttle body sensor is bad?

Assuming you mean the throttle position sensor. The throttle position sensors tells the engine computer when the throttle position has changed, it adjusts fuel flow to match the throttle opening. If the throttle position sensor fails then the engine computer has to depend only on the MAP sensor to define air flow thus how to adjust the fuel flow. I would expect then that response time would be slower than when the throttle position sensor works correctly. On a Chevy Celebrity it might also turn on the check engine light and post either a code 21 or a code 22.

WHAT IS Throttle position sensor ON Volvo?

A Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) reports to the ECM how open the throttle is. The signal is sent as voltage to the ECM, and the amount of voltage reports how open the throttle is. The throttle is what allows gasoline to get to the engine, and in a car that is the gas pedal. We would think fo the value as 0% to 100% and any range between.
