How to remove the Cadillac throttle

Pacific Auto Network takes Cadillac xt5 as an example. First remove the engine guard with 10mm sleeve, and then remove the engine guard with 10mm sleeve. Remove the plastic pipe of the air intake duct. Then remove the pipe from the intake hose and loosen the screw near the throttle clamp with an 8 mm sleeve. Then loosen the screw at the other end and remove the air inlet hose between the air cleaner and the throttle. Remove the hose of the carbon charging solenoid valve, and clamp it with pliers to remove it.

The key tool (ratchet wrench) came out, and the same 8mm sleeve was used, which was much more convenient. Otherwise, it would take a lot of effort, and the throttle valve was completely dismantled and still dirty. Be careful not to unplug the plug connected to the throttle valve at this time, and keep the connecting wire firmly in contact with the throttle valve during the whole cleaning process. The throttle is all removed, and it's still dirty.

Be careful not to unplug the plug connected to the throttle valve at this time, and keep the connecting wire firmly in contact with the throttle valve during the whole cleaning process. This is a 3M throttle (door) cleaner. It is best not to use carburetor cleaner. Adjust the movable trigger, change the direction of ratchet wrench, install throttle and connect all pipes. Be careful not to connect the upper and lower throttle pipes by mistake. This means that the pipes have been connected after cleaning and installation.
