alfaholic 001 0 Report post Posted October 18, 2011 What is the correct way to perform a throttle reset I forgot as all the 90s are confusing Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Smaky 73 Report post Posted October 19, 2011 Turn key to MAR, Turn key to OFF for 90 seconds, Turn key to MAR for 90 seconds, Turn key to off and then start engine without touching pedals, Leave to idle for 5 minutes, Drive car for a minimum of 15 minutes.

alfaholic 001 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2011 i done the throttle reset exactly as you said i should and there definately is a huge noticable difference, the idle is very steady and it seems a little more responsive on the pull away as well as between gears Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
