How Do I Make An Unadjustable Throttle Into An Adjustable Throttle

Toyota camry idle adjustments?

try having the throttle body cleaned,followed by an induction system cleaning,that starts at the trottle body.if that does not work,you will need to have the idle air control vavle replaced.it is under the throttle body,where the accelerator cable hooks to the throttle valve.the idle is non adjustable.changing it would be a mistake.turning the set screw might help,but it will not solve the problem.it would get worse and do the same thing later.
if a mechanic is willing to spend some time on it,he can free the IAC,spray a cleaner in it and let it sit.start engine and repeat until better.

What is throttling valve?

Throttling valve designed to regulate the supply of a fluid (as steam or gas and air) to an engine and operated by a handwheel, a lever, or automatically by a governor; especially : the valve in an internal-combustion engine incorporated in or just outside the carburetor and controlling the volume of vaporized fuel charge delivered to the cylinders.Throttle valves come in piston and needle-valve structures, but we also know them as turn plugs with axial or radial grooves. The smothering of grooves is more accurate but provides more variability than those with piston structures. The needle throttle has one disadvantage: a great deal of power is required to move the needle only a slight amount.The pressure difference (Δp) determines the amount of flow that passes the throttle. In systems with varying loads (and therefore varying pressures), the flow passing the throttle will always be different.You can find non-adjustable (fixed) smothering in situations where it is needed to gauge against excessive pressure surges. Also, one can find non-adjustable throttles in control systems.You can read more about throttle Valve on Wikipedia. Throttle - WikipediaAlso, you can visit : http://www.zahroofvalves.com/

How do I adjust a 2-stroke carburetor?

Two strokes are touchy when tuning. As this instructable shows, two strokes can have catastrophic failures if run too lean and will not run if too rich. http://m.instructables.com/id/Tu...Lean means that there is too little fuel as a proportion of the fuel air mixture and rich means there's too much fuel. Adjusting and reading plugs can be a good method of tuning on two strokes. There's a cornucopia on the subject of reading spark plugs alone. Here's a basic overview or you can google "How to read spark plugs" You're best bet is to set the carb back to factory settings. This varies widely by make and model but is usually along the lines of screw the idle screw all the way in (Never tightly!) and then loosen 2 turns or whatever it is for your application. A similar thing will exist for the mixture screw. If the equipment has been sitting, ethanol in modern gas can damage components sometimes a fuel cleaner like b12 chemtool can help and a additive like stabil fuel will keep fuel fresh for about a year so ethanol corrosion doesn't occur again. Good luck. There's plenty of resources online about this subject and Google is your friend.

What would be the symptoms of a throttle position sensor that needs adjustment?

The function of the throttle position sensor, aka TPS, is to supply information to the car's computer about the position of the car's throttle. It contains electro-mechanical moving parts which are prone to wear and tear, which eventually add to the cost of car repairs. Malfunctioning of a TPS can result in improper data being fed to the car's computer, which monitors engine performance, in respect to the fuel efficiency of the car. A damaged, malfunctioning TPS can cause variety of symptoms.

Symptoms of bad TPS:
Bucking and jerking of the car; Idle surging of the car; Sudden stalling of the car engine; Hesitation while the driver of the car is trying to accelerate; Sudden surge in car's speed while driving on the highway.

The data provided by TPS is invaluable for proper startup, idle and easy throttle response of the car. These operations are affected when a bad throttle position sensor feeds erroneous data to the car's computer. Because of this, the following can occur:
Engine Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) is turned on.
The driver of a car experiences difficulty while changing gears.
The fuel economy of the car drops drastically.
Causes difficulty in setting base-ignition-timing of the car.

Testing the TPS:
TPS are manufactured using switch, potentiometer and combination designs. If it is not adjustable then it becomes mandatory that you check throttle stop and throttle cable adjustments. Their improper functioning could cause symptoms such as, poor startup of the car, inefficient response of the throttle of the car, or idle stop. Switch and combination TPS are tested with ohmmeter. In order to test a non-adjustable TPS such as potentiometer TPS, a voltmeter is used and the following list, describes the steps involved in it.
You need to disconnect the throttle sensor harness.
Open the throttle valve manually and check the resistance between the terminal 1 and 2 changes.
Check the resistance in three different positions of the accelerator pedal.
You may record a resistance of approximately 10-ohms when the accelerator is fully, 2 to 10-ohms partially depressed and 2-ohms when completely released.

Adjusting idle on 50hp mercury outboard engine?

Merc has used the basic throttle linkage system on all their mid sized outboards for more than 30 years- 2 pivot arms, a cam, and some incidental parts and springs, located on the port side of the engine block. The idle speed adjustment is a machine screw with a phillips head, located on the outer pivot arm. Here are 2 examples:
1990 2 stroke (part # 14):

2005 4 stroke EFI (part # 10)

How do I adjust the idle speed on my 1993 GMC Sonoma truck?

The idle speed should be controlled by the TBI, if you have a poor idle I would look for a vacuum leak first. This is the main reason behind poor idling.
Then check the PCV valve to make sure that it's not stuck closed, it's cheap enough you should replace it anyway.
Also the idle is controlled by the ECM through a serious of sensors that could be giving false information, the first likely one would be a coolant temperature sensor, followed by a oxygen sensor and the the MAP (Manifold absolute pressure) Sensor. So there is a good start for you to work on, one of these will fix the issue.
Best Regards!

Throttle position sensor, o2, or something else? Dodge Ram 1500?

you problably need 02 sensors, but clean the TPS too...

I have a 81 Cm400A Hondamatic that stalls out whenever I slow down to stop or turn but otherwise runs fine?

Starts and runs fine. But almost every time I decelerate it bogs out and dies. Holding open the throttle a little will keep it from dying. But being a Hondamatic with no clutch I'm still in gear coming to stops which makes it difficult to stop and throttle at the same time. I tried turning up the idle which helped a little but now the idle is to high when in neutral. When in gear throttle is good. Any ideas?

Multiple motorcycle riding modes, do you really use them or are they only fun at first and you soon settle on the one that you like?

My Triumph Tiger 800XCA has several modes including ROAD, OFF-ROAD, and RIDER. The first two are non-adjustable factory modes, but RIDER is an adjustable profile that opens up MAP, ABS, and traction control. The MAP options include RAIN, ROAD, SPORT, and OFF-ROAD.What’s the difference?In RIDER OFF-ROAD mode, I can actually turn ABS and traction control completely off, whereas the regular OFF-ROAD mode still employs light ABS and traction control. I could also have road-worthy ABS and no traction control if I so chose.So, do I use them?Yes. Unfortunately, the Tiger Triumph resets to ROAD every time it is turned off, and I mostly ride with the intent of leaving the pavement. For the majority of riding I do, ROAD and OFF-ROAD are good enough.
