device to hold throttle at constant revs

[the1andonly]

I seen a you tube video to clean a dpf and the guy used a fancy tool to hold the throttle pedal to specific revs. So when i needed to hold throttle down i dismantled a clamp and reassembled in a different orientation.

Good idea. Saves buying one if you need to do that.

You use that to regen your dpf ?
Wow
Wouldn't taking it for a drive be a better option ?

The MOT station I use has the same sort of thing to keep the revs steady at the correct RPM for testing the emissions.

Love it. Cut price cruise control.

Thats odd......mine is tested at idle then one pedal press to max revs....just on then immediately off....at no point is it held in any position

Standard testing after idle is 30 seconds stable revs between 2500-3000 rpm.

Mines done with "fast pass"......
From idle it's floored once.
First line below car data.

No DPF !

No i don't use it for regen, the utube was cleaning out a dpf chemicaly then blasting it out.
My use ,can't remember precisly, was testing something with multiecuscan. just collecting data.

You may be joking but I used to have a works van, no cruise control but it was limited to 70mph. A carefully cut stick jammed into the door handle and onto the accelerator holding it to the floor worked for me on the motorways

I hope not.
Emissions are tested from idle instantly to full throttle for a couple of seconds.
At no point are constant revs tested.

That's for diesel, petrol emissions are tested at constant revs

You're wrong, watch the video, it's recorded at an MOT station.

here in spain we use the one rev to 3500 rpm for diesels & 4000rpm for petrols. no idea why the difference?

My old 2012 A6 TDi Auto would not rev in neutral over 2500 revs as this was controlled by the ECU. The tester used to write "not able to test".

It never said it was a petrol engine being tested.
I haven't had a petrol engined vehicle for 30 years.
Mine is always done as "fast pass".....idle to floor and back to idle in one rapid movement.
