Throttle Body Replacement Instructions

Model: Ford Transit MK 7 - Years 2006-2014
Part: Throttle body

The throttle body is a device located along the intake duct and functions to partially restrict the flow of air depending on the engine speed: it may happen that the throttle mechanism jams, which consists of plastic gears. Replacing the throttle body is very simple; just disconnect the intake duct hose, the actuator connector, and remove the fastening pins from the intake manifold; take care with the gasket during installation. It may be necessary to initialise the system via diagnostics.
