I think the nosie started when i bought a RRM Throttle Body, when I took the other one out and put the new one in everything went together great. The only thing that i had to fix was the two screws that you have to use an alen wrench on. Becuase when i started my car it was idleing at 4000RPM's, so i went and turned it down to normal setting. Then a few weeks later after about 5 min of turning off my car i hear this noise coming from the throttle body. It sounds like something clicking back and forth. I took it apart again and looked at it. I notice theres a magnet in the sensors. I think after my car is off it clicks back and forth. Is this clicking normal?

 

First off you should have never played with the allen head screws... the bleed air screw to adjust idle is on top of the TB. A rubber plug is in the hole and the screw is a flat head. Put the allen back to where you found it. Those allens are for base idle/tps sensor adjustment settings at closed throttle. The other is for load adjustment like when the ac is on. See if you can get those back to where they were and then adjust the bleed screw to set idle.

 

Ok thx ill try that...

 

If you find you can't get things back right then try to adjust the bleed screw all the way down then adjust that screw until your at about 500-600rpm's. Usually that is about 2 to 2.5 turns. After that you set your bleed screw to idle you at about 700-750... the car should learn itself in after that. Good luck!

 

wait a minute... the allen wrench screw... on the tb that positions it at a certain airflow on the bottom(sorry for babblin) that holds the butterfly or whatever that **** is.. isnt supposed to be touched? n the rubber ones on top should be? explain this...

 

One is a base idle screw and the other is for while under a load as in with the AC on. They are not for adjusting the running idle. The bleed air screw is for adjusting the running idle. Although you have to be careful as the car knows it's intended range and if you adjust to high it will start cycling up and down. Usually you'll notice that if you adjust the lower screws not only does the car return to what it was doing a few hundred miles later but your AC may seriously cause the car to shudder/stall when you turn it on. Trust me, don't tamper with those screws... that is why they are painted/marked. Use the idle bleed air screw to compensate your idle... just make sure your car is fully warmed up when you do this.

 

well i adjusted the allen screw only to lower my idle. no problems at all. so i dunno if its coo

 

What about the clicking noise though?

 

Most likely it is the TPS sensor wigging out.

 

What's the TPS sensor? and moving the alen wrench screws is that what caused it? When placeing the alen wrench screws back to where they were should that noise stop?

 

Yes it should... the TPS is throttle position sensor. When you adjust that screw you will actually move the camber it is looking at. If it gets out of it's site it will lose the TPS signal. Thus it will try to pick it back up. This causes the contacts to cycle constantly which can be heard as an audible clicking. Try adjusting the screw back in or have mitsu do it if your not familiar.

 

Thx for the advice Boeturbolancer.

 

Hope it works out for you.

 

so click is bad? lol blah ima have to adjust it... drove to nj n in ny it started to feel like it wanted to stall... so top screw right?

 

Top flat head screw on upper right of TB... usually plugged with rubber stopper.
