Question

What on Earth are Throttle Bodies? I've seen them mentioned in several Petrol head magazines but have no idea as to what they are.....

No doubt you'll get a technical answer, but generally its the bit between the air box and the plenum chamber in which the throttle butterfly is located.

Why would anybody want a more technical explanation than that. 'Crystal Clear' award to Diablo.
