I have a 98 Camry 4-cylinder. I notice that the "throttle opener" = adjustment screw is loose and fully backed-off on the throttle lever. = What is the function of the "throttle opener"? What is the suggested = clearance?



My Haynes manual for this car does not mention any specs for how to = adjust the clearance between the screw and the vacuum operated "throttle = opener". ARe there any manuals that are better than the Haynes?

The throttle opener is mentioned in my Gregories manual. Adjustment is confined to:

1.- allow engine to heat-up.

2.- make sure engine is idling at 700 rpm +- 50 revs.

3- pulloff the vacuum hose from the TO and seal the end of the hose.

4- raise revs to 2500 and allow to drop back to idle

5- adjust the TO screw for an engine speed or 1300- 1500 rpm. Make sure the cooling fans are not on while doing this.

Reattach hose, which will brings revs back to normal.
