Since the large scale production of plastic throttle bodies in 1994 there have been a number of further introducions. However the universal adaptation of plastic for the throttle body has not yet occurred. This paper will describe design approaches and processing solutions to facilitate low cost precision manufacturing with test results of actual parts made by these approaches. Introductions: 1994 U.K. 4 cylinder engine, cable operation 1998 Germany 4 cylinder engine, cable operation 1999 U.S. 4 cylinder engine cable operation
