2. Throttle position sensor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Throttle_position_sensor

   A throttle position sensor (TPS) is a sensor used to monitor the throttle body valve position for the ECU of an engine. The sensor is usually located on the butterfly spindle/shaft, so that it can directly monitor the position of the throttle. More advanced forms of the sensor are also used.

3. Powerglide - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Powerglide

   With a 3.31 axle, Car and Driver magazine noted a full-throttle up shift speed of 76 mph (122 km/h) to direct with the 409-4bbl 340 hp (250 kW) engine in a contemporary road test. Most of the V8/Powerglide transmissions came with the 1.76 gear set.

4. Wide open throttle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wide_open_throttle

   Wide open throttle or wide-open throttle (WOT), also called full throttle, is the fully opened state of a throttle on an engine (internal combustion engine or steam engine). The term also, by extension, usually refers to the maximum-speed state of running the engine, as the normal result of a fully opened throttle plate/ butterfly valve .

5. Throttle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Throttle

   In fuel injected engines, the throttle body is the part of the air intake system that controls the amount of air flowing into the engine, in response to driver accelerator pedal input in the main. The throttle body is usually located between the air filter box and the intake manifold, and it is usually attached to, or near, the mass airflow sensor.

6. Turboglide - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turboglide

   At full throttle, the Turboglide will maintain the engine RPM within a narrow (~400 rpm) span of speed around 3500-4000 rpm where the best engine output is maintained, and the car will accelerate with a strong slingshot effect to catch up as the ratios drop imperceptibly as the car speed increases along the road. The effect is very similar to ...

7. Autothrottle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autothrottle

   Thrust levers of an A320 set to the autothrust position during cruise flight. An autothrottle (automatic throttle, also known as autothrust, A/T or A/THR) is a system that allows a pilot to control the power setting of an aircraft's engines by specifying a desired flight characteristic, rather than manually controlling the fuel flow.
