Throttle body cleaning
 
Can anyone offer guidance on cleaning of the throttle body? I have 207K and am not sure if that service has been performed, or if it should be.

You have to disconnect the air intake that connects to the throttle body. Then all you have to do is use a toothbrush, throttle body cleaner and some shop towels and clean off the carbon deposits on it.

You can do it yourself, takes 10 minutes. Go buy a can of TB cleaner.

I printed out that post, and have all the materials ready to go. I just need a day off work, and the seattle weather (rain) to cooperate.
