ABSTRACT:
A throttle body assembly for an internal combustion engine comprising a straddle-mounted throttle plate shaft extending transversely through an airflow passage, a bearing located on each side of the airflow passage for rotatably supporting the throttle plate shaft, and a mechanical connection between the throttle plate and the throttle plate shaft including strategically positioned clearances between the shaft and the throttle plate which will allow the throttle plate to move relative to the shaft, thereby permitting self-alignment of the throttle plate within the airflow passage.
