ford ranger. it's lugging my fat self around locally, so almost all stop-n-go, and i'm heavy on the 'go'.
my v6 eclipse averaged 2-4mpg on the display in similar conditions.

The throttle body is responsible for pulling in quantities of air that have to be compressed in order to enter the cylindrical bore and stroke chambers of that particular compartment of the engine..

how does the throttle body pull in and compress the air? what powers the throttle body to create the compression? belts?

Hence the throttle body plates rotate to compress air through a duct casting hole that is smaller in cross sectional area in comparison to the throttle body cross sectional area..

most throttle bodies don't rotate more than 90 degrees. how does a plate rotating to 0-90 degrees create any sort of compression effect? |
