With an open throttle the engine can get more of the fuel-air mixture into it. With more fuel to burn it will run faster.

Where is throttle pedal position switch b on your 2000 Saturn sl 2?

The throttle position sensor is on the throttle body. That's the part of the engine that controls the amount of air allowed into the engine. To find the throttle body, follow the air intake routing toward the engine. The throttle body is the part that sits on the intake manifold. To find the throttle position sensor, follow the throttle cable to the throttle body. If it helps, have someone press down and release the throttle pedal while you're looking for the throttle body/position sensor. The throttle cable causes a shaft to turn, that's the part that controls the air coming into the engine. The throttle position sensor is connected to that shaft.


How do you reset throttle position for 2002 Lexus es300?

To reset the throttle position on a 2002 Lexus ES300, first ensure the ignition is off. Then, turn the ignition to the "ON" position without starting the engine and wait for about 10 seconds. After that, turn the ignition off again, and start the engine. Allow it to idle for a few minutes so the system can relearn the throttle position.

Why does your 86 aerostar stall when you stop quickly or make a turn?

Why the car runs fast or slow?

The position of the throttle(gas pedal) decides how fast the engine can turn, and the selection of gear decides how fast the wheels can turn. And how fast the wheels can turn decides how fast the car will be going. (note that this is quite simplified. Eventually the resistance of pushing the car forward will be higher than the engine can overcome, and then you won't get any more turns out of the engine, even if you try for more throttle)


How does a throttle work on a dirt bike?

Pretty much the same way as on any bike. Turn the grip and some sort of valve in the carburettor opens up wider. The engine takes in more air and more fuel and begin to spin faster and stronger.


Why does your check engine light turn on after adding a throttle performance switch?

The check engine light may turn on after adding a throttle performance switch due to changes in the vehicle's throttle input signals or modifications to the engine control unit (ECU) settings. If the switch alters the throttle response beyond the parameters the ECU expects, it can trigger fault codes, resulting in the light activating. Additionally, improper installation or incompatibility with existing systems may lead to sensor errors, further prompting the check engine light. It's advisable to check for error codes to determine the specific issue.


How do you turn the idle down on a Chevy s10 blazer?

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.


How do you reset the oil life indication on a 1997 corvette?

Turn On the ignition leaving the engine OFF. Cycle the Accelerator Pedal from a closed throttle to a wide open throttle (WOT) 3 times within 5 seconds.


How do you adjust the accelerator pump on a weber carb?

To adjust the accelerator pump on a Weber carburetor, first locate the adjustment screw on the pump mechanism. Turn the screw clockwise to increase the pump's output or counterclockwise to decrease it. After making adjustments, ensure the throttle is fully closed and check for a proper squirt of fuel when the throttle is opened quickly. Fine-tune as necessary to achieve optimal performance without flooding the engine.
