Asked in Chevy Celebrity, Saturn L-Series
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.

Why do my Toyota Tacoma stalls while driving?
Throttle Position Sensor. I changed mine and my truck doesn't
stall anymore, and it does better on gas. That is if you know how
to drive standard and are not just stalling it yourself.

Location of a camshaft sensor on a 1996 Grand Am?
Camshaft Position Sensor
Under hood, center, upper engine area, mounted on front of
intake manifold and behind Throttle Body assembly. It is a one bolt
attachment. You will also note that it is located right under the
throttle cables on their way to the Throttle Body Assembly. I just
changed mine very easy to do. Just need to remove throttle cables
from Throttle Body Assembly and remove the one bolt. I bought mine
at CarQuest for $31.
Asked in Spark Plugs and Wires
Why does my 95 Honda accord hesitate TO Start and stalls when you press the gas fuel filter air filter spark pluGs wires have been changed and added FUEL CLEANER?
You may have a throttle position sensor going out or possibly
the fuel pump. Get some throttle body cleaner and clean the
throttle body inside to make sure the throttle blade inside the
body is not hanging up and then get a fuel pressure gauge and
connect it to the fuel raila nd see what kind of pressure you get
when you rev the engine..and see if there is a drop when you open
the throttle.

Asked in Spark Plugs and Wires, Ford Focus, The Difference Between, Similarities Between
If you recently changed the spark plugs on your 2000 Ford Focus and now the throttle is sticking is there any relationship between the two?
I can tell you with relative certainty that the condition and/or
operation of the spark plugs should have nothing to do with a
sticking throttle. Your best bet would be to check your throttle
body for buildup or debris. Also you might check the throttle
return spring on the side of the throttle body.
Asked in Yu-Gi-Oh
Can a Monster who was switched fom attack position to defense position by a card's effect be switched back by the owner?
It depends.
If the Monster declares an attack or already attacked and it is
switched to defense position by a card effect (like Enemy
Controller or Book of Moon for example) the Monster's
position cannot be changed by you, the controller, because it
declared an attack already. A Monster's position cannot be changed
by their controller for the rest of a turn after they declared
attacked with it.
If the Monster did not attack yet this turn and their position
is changed due to a card effect, it can be changed by the
controller.
