Instructions for Removing the Throttle Body

Model: Renault Clio Clio 2, MK 2 - Years 1998-2005
Part: Throttle body

The throttle body is located next to the intake manifold and is connected to the air filter via a U-shaped hose: first, remove the hose, disconnect the connectors attached to the throttle body (three on the side and one underneath with a metal safety clip); unclip the throttle cable by rotating the cam and extract the sleeve by pressing firmly on the grommet. Finally, unscrew the fastening bolts of the throttle body to the manifold and remove it from its seat. Once removed, clean the throttle body thoroughly using a suitable degreaser.

Installation of Upgraded Intercooler Radiator with Pipes

Lift the vehicle on suitable axle stands, remove the front wheels, and then the front bumper and grille. Proceed to remove the front headlights; drain the coolant, remove the intercooler radiator and the hoses connecting it to the intake system. Position the new intercooler radiator in the grille, temporarily securing it with cable ties, and mark with a marker the part of the metal that needs to be removed to allow the new hoses to pass through. Cut the marked portion of metal and apply a gasket to the edge. Remove the inner cover of the bumper and position it near the radiator to identify any interfering parts to eliminate: again, apply a gasket to the edge of the cut. Create brackets for securing the new radiator and proceed with the installation of the connecting pipes from the radiator to the intake, shaping and connecting them appropriately. Finally, reassemble the bumper, headlights, and grille.
