CARDONE 67-6001 Remanufactured Fuel Injection Throttle Body Instructions

CARDONE 67-6001 Remanufactured Fuel Injection Throttle Body

Product Information

The Electronic Throttle Body is a component used in the fuel system of a vehicle. It is responsible for controlling the amount of air flow into the engine, which in turn affects the engine’s performance and throttle response. Installation instructions for the Electronic Throttle Body can be found in the authorized original equipment service manual. It is important to follow these instructions carefully to ensure proper installation and avoid any damage to the vehicle. If you do not have the necessary experience, tools, or manuals, it is recommended to seek the services of a qualified technician who can assist you with the installation. Replacement time for the Electronic Throttle Body is estimated to be 2 hours.

Common Symptoms

• Irregular or unstable idle
• Reduced engine power
• Stalling or hesitation during acceleration

Tips

• Avoid installing a throttle body with a larger bore size than recommended, as it can lead to a lean running condition and potential engine damage.
• Ensure that proper fuel, engine, and powertrain management modifications are in place before attempting to increase airflow into the engine
• Keep fingers away from the throttle body bore during installation to avoid bodily harm, as the internal throttle valve is controlled by reduction gears that can produce significant force.

Myth Buster

• Myth : Installing a throttle body with a larger bore will increase horsepower and improve throttle response.
• Busted : While it is true that a larger bore throttle body can increase horsepower and improve throttle response, it is not recommended. Without proper supporting modifications, such as fuel, engine, and powertrain management upgrades, it can cause a lean running condition and potential engine damage.

Before You Install

• Make sure to read and understand the installation instructions provided in the authorized original equipment service manual.
• If you lack the necessary experience, tools, or manuals, it is advisable to seek the assistance of a qualified technician.

Electronic Throttle Body

Refer to the authorized original equipment service manual for detailed installation instructions. If you do not have the experience, proper tools or manuals, please seek the services of a qualified technician.

COMMON SYMPTOMS

• Stored trouble codes relating to the MAF, TPS, intake air temp sensor or accelerator pedal position.
• Consistent/intermittent reduction in engine power
• Low idle RPM or erratic idle
• Delayed or no throttle response when depressing accelerator
• Erratic transmission shift points
• Engine surges
• Intermittent engine start, then stall
• Hesitation

MYTH BUSTER

• Myth : Installing a throttle body with a larger bore will increase horsepower and improve throttle response.
• Busted : Although a larger bore throttle body can increase horsepower and improve throttle response, it is not recommended. Trying to push too much airflow into your engine without the supporting fuel, engine, and powertrain management modifications will cause a lean running condition which could result in engine damage.

TIPS

• Only use hand tools when installing the replacement throttle body. Do not use any kind of impact or power tool to tighten throttle body mounting hardware.
• Make sure the intake bore and throttle body mounting surfaces are clean before installing a replacement throttle body.
• Inspect the throttle body harness for worn or frayed insulation. Replace or repair the harness, if necessary.
• Ensure connector terminals are secure in their plastic casing and that the connector locking latch is functioning properly. Repair or replace the connector, if necessary.
• Inspect air intake tubing for a good seal. Repair or replace tubing, if necessary.
• Inspect attaching hoses on throttle bodies with integrated tubing for coolant flow. Replace any hoses that are collapsed or constricted by debris.
• Perform O.E. manufacturer’s relearn calibration process to set base and closed idle valve positions.
• Certain applications have replacement units that are supplied without coolant pipes. This is done to match O.E. supersessions where the pipes have been removed. Instructions are provided for rerouting coolant hoses in these cases.

BEFORE YOU INSTALL

Keep fingers away from throttle body bore to avoid bodily harm. The internal throttle valve is controlled by reduction gears that can produce a lot of force.
