How to Replace the Throttle Body

Model: Dodge Charger LX - Years 2006-2011
Part: Throttle body

Our cars have a mechanical component located within fuel-injected engines, specifically in the fuel system. This component regulates the airflow entering the combustion chamber. If this component fails, it will compromise the overall functions of the engine and needs to be replaced. This guide shows how to change the throttle body. Disconnect the electrical connectors attached to the throttle body and the intake hose. Generally, the throttle body has a long screw, a wing nut, and clips that secure the duct. Remove everything and disconnect the cables attached to the throttle body. At this point, it will be possible to extract the throttle body from the engine.
