A trouble code says I need to replace the throttle body on my 2002 Acura RSX (base model--not turbo). It looks like something I can do myself, but before jumping in, I need to know if there is any sort of tuning, adjustment, or calibration that must be done after replacing the throttle body. If so, what sort of equipment is required. Thanks!

Hi evans51,

What is the trouble code that you are getting?

There is nothying you need to do after replacing the throttle body. Ensure the throttle body is clean if it is a used unit.
