🔧 Hitachi ETB0003 Fuel Injection Throttle with Gasket/O-Ring - Reliable Performance and Complete Package Review

There is a complex sequence of turning the key, depressing the throttle several times and then holding it for a few seconds to reset the throttle…

My 2003 Nissan Altima didn't accelerate when I pressed the gas pedal BUT THE ENGINE ran. The car did not reset the codes. The problem was with breaks. Research has shown that Altima's CVT transmission issues cause the same problem, but it's an 03 model, so not a CVT. CVT started in 2006 for Altima. The throttle was the only thing that made sense since the engine was running. Most of the time it picked up revs and drove normally, but sometimes it accelerated very slowly or not at all. The…
