4.10.5 Throttle valve
Throttle blade is a device, which regulates the amount of air entering the engine cylinders. The throttle blade in the body is shown in Figure 4.42. If assembled, it is a body in the form of a tube with a damper mounted on an axis inside it. By means of a cable, the damper is connected to the accelerator ("gas") pedal. When you press the accelerator pedal, the cable moves and turns the damper at some angle. Accordingly, more air starts flowing through the open damper, the electronics "gives the command" - and the power system starts supplying more fuel.

A more detailed description of the operation of the power supply system is given in the section "Power Supply System of Modern Engines".
