16V 2L Manual Transmission Throttle Valve Housing Clip Installation

Model(s):
Jetta GLI, GTI with 16V, GTX (in Canada) and Passat, 1990, 1991 m.y.


Condition

Manual transmission vehicles have a throttle valve housing which may have delay between the actuation of the idle switch and the actuation of the primary throttle plate.

Criteria





A 2 mm gap (see illustration 25-A284) may exist between the idle switch actuation lever and the throttle plate. This gap may cause a hesitation on the take off and/or reduced responsiveness at steady speeds.





To eliminate gap, a clip, Part No. 051 133 806 A, see Fig. 25-A285, is to be installed on the actuator arm.

CAUTION
DO NOT install clip when no gap is present.
