terminology Posted by bobc [Email] (#473) [Profile/Gallery] (more from bobc) on Tue, 28 Sep 2021 07:28:14 In Reply to: Engine stalled at intersection, Louis H, Mon, 27 Sep 2021 12:50:01 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
It's sometimes hard to explain symptoms over the internet and some folks use different terms to describe the problem.
when you say that you "hear the starter engage" do you mean:
- you hear the solenoid click and engage? or
- you hear the starter turn and spin/crank the engine?
when you say "engine would not turn over" do you mean
- the starter did not spin/crank the engine? or
- the engine was spinning/cranking but did not start?
Since you tried "hooking up a fully charged booster battery" I assume you had some symptoms suggesting a dead battery?
but since you are asking about the throttle body Im wondering if you are having symptoms related to rough running and drivability.
in regards to the throttle body:
- do you have the Check Engine Light on? if so what is the code?
- does the throttle plate move when you press the accelerator? (if so you are in limp home mode and you may need to press the accelerator a bit to get it started)
