2000 Chevrolet Prizm Throttle Body Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to service and repair the Throttle Body on 2000 Chevrolet Prizm?

  A: Start your Throttle Body service and repair by taking off the air inlet duct and pcv breather hose and throttle position sensor connector. Operating the throttle lever disconnects both accelerator and throttle valve cables and necessitates connector removal from the idle air control (IAC) valve. Start service by draining coolant system fluid then removing the 2 Throttle Body coolant hoses. Start by removing three components: the accelerator cable bracket followed by the Throttle Body bolt and the next two Throttle Body fasteners. Extract the Throttle Body from the Intake Manifold and its gasket while cleaning all remaining gasket residue off the Intake Manifold. Install the new Throttle Body Gasket onto the Intake Manifold and secure the Throttle Body with its two nuts. Connect the accelerator cable bracket to the Throttle Body via the bolt before relocating the Throttle Body while securing its 3 fasteners at 20 n.m (15 lb ft torque). Establish connection between the Throttle Body and the 2 coolant hoses before linking the pcv hose and then connecting the iac valve electrical connector and finally attaching the tp sensor electrical connector. Close the cooling system after installing the air inlet duct.
