[Winter is coming] Cleaning the throttle for Xiao Ai

September 13, 2024

Winter is approaching, so I need to prepare supplies for the winter. Buy clothes and so on. Maybe Xiao Ai has also felt the breath of winter. It is only a few degrees in the morning. When the car is cold, the idle speed jumps to 1500 rpm, and then it drops sharply to 1000 rpm, and then slowly drops to normal idle speed. It feels like it tells me that the throttle is dirty. Open the cabin, check it, and clean it directly if it is dirty. Anyway, there is everything.

Remove the air filter. In fact, you just need to remove the upper part of the filter element shell. I had other tasks before removing it. Check the air filter element. If it is very dirty, replace it directly. If it is not too dirty, use compressed air blowing. After all, if a newly washed throttle cannot wear a dirty mask, right?

This is the throttle, which immediately reveals his true colors

What the empty filter shell looks like after it is removed,

See the black carbon deposits outside the gap? If it is too much, it will affect idle stability, and it may also turn on epc or engine fault lights, or even stall the engine.

The size 8 sleeve can be completed with a connecting rod and a small quick wrench. It is simple.

Plug the plug. Be careful to keep the key turned off before unplugging it or simply unplugging it to avoid losing computer data

See if it is dirty?

The interior is dirtier. Prepare for cleaning

Spray the throttle onto the throttle carbon deposit position or spray it onto paper to wipe it. Mine is already very dirty

Wipe it clean and let it bask in the sun. I’ll go get a glass of water.

Prepare to load the car. Be careful not to install it at the wrong angle. How did you remove it and how to install it back?

This is the size 8 sleeve

Back to its original appearance

After installing the throttle valve, sit in the driver’s seat, turn the key to self-test state, then turn off the key, cycle back and forth three times, start the vehicle, and check whether the driving state is stable.
My idling speed was only 1000 when I was driving, and then it quickly dropped. The phenomenon of high idling speed was no longer, and the fault was resolved.

After cleaning up the throttle, I tore off the black film that was previously posted on the roof of the car. I felt that it looked best as before.

This is a previous photo, black-topped status

Still black top

After tearing it off, I used a hair dryer to hit the warm air barrier and blew it while tearing it off. Otherwise, it would be difficult to tear it off and there was no glue left. Friends who wanted to put a black top on them could dispel this doubt.
