- Measures airflow and air temperature with the MAF sensor

Electronic Throttle Body

CAUTION: Do not hold the throttle plate open with any object that could scratch the bore or plate while servicing or cleaning the throttle body. See - Service and Repair.
The electronic throttle body:

- controls air supply to the intake manifold by electronically positioning the throttle plate.
