Throttle body
Essential equipment |
| diagnostic tool |
Tightening torques |
|
| throttle body bolts | 1.3 daN.m |
| air filter housing bolts | 0.9 daN.m |
REMOVAL

- Disconnect the battery.
- Remove the air filter housing (1) (Chapter Fuel Mixture, Air Filter Housing, page 12A-14).
- Disconnect:
- the throttle body connector (2),
- the fuel vapour recirculation hose (3) from the control solenoid valve.

- Remove:
- the mounting bolts (4),
- the throttle body.
INSTALLATION
- Refit in the reverse order of removal.
- Replace the throttle body gasket every time it is removed (use grease to ease installation).
- Tighten to the following torques:
- the throttle body bolts (1.3 daN.m),
- the air filter housing bolts (0.9 daN.m).
Connect the battery; carry out the necessary re-learns (see Electrical Equipment chapter).
- If the throttle body is replaced, use the diagnostic tool to reset the stop learning using command RZ005 "Learning".
When the ignition is switched on, the throttle body must perform a MIN and MAX stop learning cycle.
Use the diagnostic tool to check that the learning has been completed: ET051 "Throttle stop learning".
