Wondering how I can find out if my throttle body shaft is worn? After deceleration down to an idle it has a tendency to stick at a higher rpm. Is it time for a rebuild even if I can?
Could it be something else? Thank you kind sirs!!! |

QUOTE(BeemerSteve @ Sep 15 2016, 05:46 AM)  QUOTE(Rob-O @ Sep 14 2016, 07:24 PM) is this with or without the accelerator pedal connected? Yes. Not a whole lot of information in your reply. Let's start again. So you've disconnected the throttle cable from the throttle body and have actuated the TB by hand and this problem is still there? Just trying to help by being methodical in the approach to solving the issue. And thought I'd start at the accelerator cable. If the TB is sticky when the throttle cable is disconnected, you'll feel it when you actuate it by hand. If it opens and closes cleanly then it's in vacuum somewhere. |
