Throttle body sensor
« on: 04 June 2009, 09:31 »
I believe this is the cold start mechanism!



It broke off in my hands!

Have stuck it back on but looks to be in wrong position! That orange bit is the piston.
The car starts so do I need to do anything?

looks like an idle switch to me, sounds like a trip to the scrappy is on the cards for you!

'INTAKE SYSTEM / THROTTLE VALVE ADAPTER / 2.0ltr. / / 4 cylinder: / ABF'

'switch for throttle valve'

I'll double check the number on the one on my inlet, but I'm pretty sure thats it :)

yeah have to watch out for those bits as the abf inlet/isv/breather piping changed on the later years. the breather diagram in particular is completly wrong for an abf its all 8v in the pics!
