2009 Ford Expedition Throttle Body Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to service and repair the throttle body on 2009 Ford Expedition?

  A: Service and repair of the throttle body begins with disconnecting the battery ground cable. Unplug the crankcase ventilation tube quick connect coupling from the air cleaner outlet pipe-to-throttle body adapter and remove the outlet pipe. After removing the clamp insert the bolt then detach the air intake resonator assembly. Remove the three mounting bolts which anchor the air cleaner outlet pipe-to-throttle body adapter after which you can extract the adapter component. Cut off the electronic throttle control wiring harness and throttle position sensor electric adapter. The installation requires removing four bolts along with the vibration damper and throttle body assembly which also demands discarding of the throttle body O-ring seal. Install the throttle body and vibration damper by using a new O-ring seal and follow a two-step bolt torquing procedure first applying 9 Nm then an additional 90-degree turn (one-fourth rotation). Attach the throttle position sensor along with the electronic throttle control electrical connectors. Insert the air cleaner outlet pipe-to-throttle body adapter before installing and tightening its three bolts to 10 Nm (89 lb-in). The air intake resonator assembly should be rebuilt after securing the bolt and clamp with torque at 10 Nm (89 lb-in). Close the fastener of the crankcase ventilation tube and connect it to the air cleaner outlet pipe-to-throttle body adapter while reinstalling the air cleaner outlet pipe and making the last connection by reattaching the battery ground cable.
