What Is a Carburetor Throttle Plate and Why Is It Important?
The carburetor throttle plate, also known as the butterfly valve, plays a vital role in controlling airflow into the engine. This movable component opens and closes based on throttle input, directly regulating the engine’s power output and response. A properly functioning throttle plate is essential for smooth acceleration, optimal power delivery, and overall engine performance.
When the throttle plate is damaged, stuck, or misaligned, it can lead to poor engine response, reduced power, or erratic idling.
