There is no spedific measurement. You should signal in good time before slowing down and the distance depends on your speed and the road lay out. You do not want to bev mistaken for tkaing an earlier turn but you also need to give the other road users sufficent time to notice.

This isn't a rule of thumb about distance, it's about how long you signal your intention (time). I don't know the set law about this time. My dad is a professional truck driver with 30 years over the road, he told me, when I was learning to drive, when you turn your turn signal on to switch lanes, let it flash for 2 or 3 times before you begin changing lane.

How do i know if throttlebody is bad?

If the TPI (throttle position sensor) is bad, you will have a fault code set in the computer. To check it, with a scope, graph the signal while opening/closing the throttle. The signal should be a smooth wave, if there are any dips, the sensor should be replaced.
