3. The regulator is held in place by two bolts. Use a wrench to loosen the bolts and remove the regulator from the throttle body.
4. Inspect the regulator for damage or wear. If the regulator is damaged or worn, replace it with a new one.
5. Install the new regulator in the reverse order of removal. Tighten the bolts until they are snug.
