2006 Chevrolet Corvette Throttle Body Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to replace the throttle body assembly on 2006 Chevrolet Corvette?

  A: The 8-digit part identification number on the Throttle Body casting helps identify the Throttle Body assembly during servicing or part change needs. The electronic throttle control needs cautious handling to prevent damage because dropping or rough handling must be evaded and cleaning solvents must be avoided completely. Start by disconnecting the intake Mass Air Flow Sensor electrical connector then apply a seal to maintain airflow prevention from entering any openings. Remove the air cleaner assembly before disconnecting the air control valve electrical connector and removing Throttle Body attaching bolts. Separate both the Throttle Body and its gasket during removal before tossing out the old gasket which must be discarded because reuse would be improper. When installing the Throttle Body assembly use a new gasket and attach the assembly with bolts by applying 10 n.m (89 lb in) torque as per the fastener notice. Reinstall the air control valve electrical connector and its proper connector seal while verifying both components are intact. Once completed, fit the air intake duct and restore the Mass Air Flow Sensor electrical connector.
