C. Remove cap, filter and separator from dashpot

D. Check and adjust dashpot setting speed


(a) Maintain the engine at 4,000 rpm.
(b) Plug the VTV hole with your finger.
(c) Release the throttle valve.

(e) Adjust the dashpot setting speed by turning the dashpot


adjusting screw.
(f) Repeat steps from (a) to (c), and recheck the dashpot setting
speed.
E. Reinstall separator, filter and cap to dashpot
HINT: Install the filter with the coarser surface facing the at-
mospheric side (outside).
F. Check VTV operation
(a) Maintain the engine at 2,500 rpm.
(b) Release the throttle valve, and check that the engine returns
to idle in a few seconds.

3. CHECK THROTTLE OPENER


(a) Check the engine speed when disconnect the throttle opener

THROTTLE BODY INSPECTION


EG5FC–01
1. CLEAN THROTTLE BODY
(a) Using a soft brush and carburetor cleaner, clean the cast
parts.
(b) Using compressed air, clean all the passages and apertures.
NOTICE: To prevent deterioration, do not clean the
throttle position sensor and dashpot.

2. INSPECT THROTTLE VALVE AND THROTTLE POSITION


SENSOR
A. Inspect throttle valve
(a) Disconnect the vacuum hose from the throttle opener.
(b) Apply vacuum to the throttle opener.
(c) Check that there is no clearance between the throttle stop
screw and throttle lever when the throttle valve is fully closed.
(d) Reconnect the vacuum hose to the throttle opener.

B. Inspect throttle position sensor


(a) Insert a 0.40 mm (0.016 in.) or 0.65 mm (0.026 in.) feeler
gauge between the throttle stop screw and stop lever.

A. Inspect sub–throttle actuator
Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between the ter-
minals (ACM ~ A and A–, BCM ~ B and B–).
Resistance:

If the resistance is not as specified, replace the actuator
valve.
B. Inspect sub–throttle actuator
Remove the 3 screws and sub–throttle actuator.
