• Q: How to replace the throttle body assembly on 2005 Chevrolet Monte Carlo?

  A: A replacement of the Throttle Body assembly requires draining the cooling system first. Remove the air cleaner intake duct while disconnecting two components: the idle air control (IAC) valve electrical connector and the throttle position (TP) sensor electrical connector. Begin by disassembling the Throttle Body assembly through removal of the accelerator controls cable bracket followed by the Throttle Body inlet and outlet hoses. Start by removing the heater pipe nut at the Throttle Body before using a wrench to remove the assembly with Throttle Body Gasket and securing bolts and nuts. The gasket mating surfaces require inspection after cleaning with caution to avoid any solvent use and strict avoidance of sharp tools that could harm the surfaces. Installation requires new gasket replacement followed by Throttle Body assembly mounting through nut and bolt tightening to 28 n.m (21 lb ft). Next install the inlet and outlet hoses before screwing in and tightening the heater pipe nut to 25 n.m (18 lb ft). The next steps include attachment of tp sensor and iac valve electrical connectors followed by bracket install for the accelerator controls and air cleaner intake duct. Fill the cooling system afterward.
