OrionStang Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 So on my car, there is no throttle cable. When you push the gas pedal, a signal is sent to an actuator on the throttle body that tells it how far to open. My problem is, when I push the pedal, it feels like the throttle isn't opening completely. I know its a slow stang, but damn. Is there a way to adjust this? I can't get the car to my mechanic until late next week. Note: I am not getting any diagnostic codes. Just troubleshooting.

deathcards Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 check harnesses for corrosion would be my best guess unless something was messing with the actually signal skar sk2500.1 0 gauge power and ground kunukonceptz alpine HUvxi65 components on BA gt-275new build log -> http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/150642-project-d-kon-deathcards-build-log/#entry2148821 2 x-15 sundowns singer alt, odyssey bat, and maxwell ultra caps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith77 Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 There are no adjustments on it at all. They are plug and play. Sometimes a "relearn" can be done on them. Thats cool. Im way too old to be upset by shit like that. Your name is winston. Your own parents hated you even before you were born. My penis is bigger than your penis I'm far from loud and my roof/headliner flaps around like Adam's ass on a windy day. I think it depends more on the structure of the vehicle.

OrionStang Posted June 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 No corrosion or anything, all wires look good. Unless there is something inside the unit. Might stop by the dealership and see what they say. I m out of warranty though. SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pariah Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 Disconnecting the battery will clear the adaptive memory, but that likely won't give you much more throttle response. I have seen aftermarket tunes/chips that can change the throttle response. My understanding of all throttle by wire, how fast and how far you push the accelerator generates the signal that the ECU uses to determine your intention. They are generally designed to balance responsiveness with fuel economy; that's what the chips/tune change. Pedal on the floor means wide open throttle NOW!

OrionStang Posted June 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 I know how its supposed to work. But when I floor it, it feels like maybe 3/4 throttle. SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrionStang Posted June 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 Maybe check for deposits or buildup in the tb? Ill check, but it was just cleaned when the supercharger went on. SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Hammer Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 Yeah I figured it would have been. IDK my truck is wire and I have to clean it every 20-30k from the crap CA gas. I will start getting low idle codes and it idles rough, and it starts becoming noticeable, even though its already a slow pig lol. If there is no code maybe unplug it all and let it start over, go for a good little drive.

carfreac18 Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 What about the harness on the pedal itself? maybe there is corrosion there. 1998 Mustang GT Yellow 5-Speed Manual, Cold-Air Intake, saving up for 4.10 gears in the rear-end.
