Ducati, where's the throttle?

The throttle valve of an automobile is located at the air inlet of the engine, behind the filter element of the engine air cleaner and in front of the intake manifold. Throttle is a controllable valve that controls air to enter the engine. After the air enters the intake pipe, it will be mixed with gasoline to form a combustible mixture, and the combustion is successful. Known as the throat of an automobile engine, it is connected with the air filter and the engine block. There are two kinds of throttles: traditional cable throttle and electronic throttle. The traditional engine throttle control mechanism works by pulling a cable (soft steel wire) or a pull rod. One end of the cable is connected with the accelerator pedal, and the other end is connected with the accelerator linkage plate. The electronic throttle mainly uses the throttle position sensor to control the throttle opening according to the energy required by the engine, so as to adjust the intake air.
