What happens when the throttle is released?
The operator releases the throttle lever. With the throttle released, the PWC continues to go straight ahead even though the operator is trying to turn to the right.
What does not work on a PWC when the throttle is released?
If you allow the engine on a PWC or other jet-propelled vessel to return to idle or shut off during operation, you may lose all steering control. You may not stop immediately even after releasing the throttle or shutting off the engine. Even PWC that have a braking system do not stop immediately.
What happens to a PWC when the throttle is released and the engine returns to idle?
If you release the throttle to idle or if the engine shuts off during operation you will lose all steering control. In either situation, the PWC will continue in the direction it was headed before the throttle was released or the engine was shut-off. Operation of the steering control will have no effect.
What happens when a PWC’s steering control is turned to the right?
For example, if the steering control is turned right, the nozzle turns right and the jet of water pushes the back of the vessel to the left, which causes the PWC to turn right.
What does the throttle do?
throttle, Valve for regulating the supply of a fluid (as steam) to an engine, especially the valve controlling the volume of vaporized fuel delivered to the cylinders of an internal-combustion engine. In an automobile engine, gasoline is held in a chamber above the carburetor.
What happens when you shut off the engine of a PWC?
What will happen if you shut off the engine? The PWC will not stop until it runs out of gas. The PWC will lose all buoyancy and turn over.
What will a new throttle body do?
In addition to increasing acceleration performance, larger throttle bodies can also boost overall horsepower. This gives the engine increased power and torque, which may be helpful in situations such as towing. Commonly, adding an aftermarket throttle body can increase engine power by 15 hp to 25 hp.
What is a throttle body and what does it do?

What happens when the throttle gets stuck in an open position?
When the throttle gets stuck in an open position than your vehicle will receive too much air and cause it to have a high or fluctuating idle. What are signs of a bad Throttle Position Sensor? Acceleration issues: A bad TPS may cause all sorts of power issues. Your engine may start up but it will have little to no power and it causes it to shut off.
When do you know your throttle body is clogged?
Run the car till there’s no more fuel left and work out your average miles per gallon.
