… contamination of the throttle valve itself or the suction of foreign air through loose hose connections attached to the intake pipe. If cleaning the throttle valve or tightening the hose clamps does not restore idle speed, contact specialists to replace the throttle cover or replace the throttle assembly as a whole (see "Removing and installing the throttle assembly").
