Alfa Romeo 166 - Video tutorial

Model: Alfa Romeo 166 MK 1 - Years 1998-2007
Part: Throttle body
Operation: Clean the throttle body without removing it

If there are carburetion problems with sudden changes in the number of revolutions of the engine, it is necessary to clean the throttle adjustment system. The first operation consists in unscrewing the air hose clamp. Once the tube has been removed, the dirty state of the regulator can be seen. It is possible to clean the regulator without having to disassemble the whole group but simply by using a special spray. Initially clean the regulator inlet using a cloth soaked in spray without touching the butterfly. Start the car and while the engine is running, spray the spray into the opening without exaggerating but with small sprays. Make sure that no foreign body is aspirated during this operation. If the throttle is not touched, no calibration is necessary. Reassemble the tube.
