How do you use it? Details please.

 

so u dont have to remove ur throtle body?? all that gunk that breaks up goes right into ur engine??? and thats ok??

 

won't hurt a thing.

 

Anyone know the best cleaner to get? I plan on doing this soon. Also, how hard is it to take off the stock intake? Directions would be awesome. Thanks.

 

Go a local autoparts store and ask them or get STP Throttle body cleaner. And the precedures is remove your intake piping or air duct to gain access to the throttle body. open the throttle plate by pushing or pulling on were the throttle cable is attach. spray the throttle body cleaner inside on the carbon build up. Then that a towel and wipe it or you can use a brush to brush the carbon loose. Make sure you clean all around. even the back side of the throttle plate. It be a lot easier if someone step on the gas pedal or get a big screwdriver to make the throttle acclerator stay open. then when you finish cleaning start the car up without putting the intake back in. rev the car and spray some more throttle body cleaner in it. This will allow all the carbon build up to exit through the tailpipe and won't harm the engine one bit. onces the smoke goes away. turn off the engine and reinstall the intake piping. This will help the throttle plate from sticking. And will be ride better from not sticking.

 

Wow. Thanks so much for all this information.

 

Alright, I'm going to do this sometime this week. I'm going to use Seafoam or STP Throttle Body Cleaner. Which would you guys reccomend. Anyways, I talked to my friend who is going to help me and he said this: the carbon from the Throttle Body gets sucked into the motor and also, the stuff that you use to clean it goes into the motor also, and it will make the engine run like shit and it's not good to have that stuff in there. Anyways, is he right or wrong? I think my pedal's sticking some, and I'd like to fix it. Anyways, thanks guys and sorry for bringing this back up to the top but I need some help.

 

Well what your friend said is true about the carbon going into the head, but the combustion will clear that right up. Then it all gets flushed out of your exhaust pipe. Beautiful sight really....brings tears to my eyes...*sniff*

Use Seafoam...works wonders.

 

I just had it done month ago, I thought there was a difference but it might have been in my head
mind you my mechanic said it was freakin grimey so who knows

I would like to clean out my intake manifold
any one done that?

 

I just did this on Wed. and it was too easy. I used Valvoline's brand because I couldn't find STP or Seafoam, but I'm sure it's all close to the same. It felt awesome seeing all that black smoke and gunk come out the exhaust. Acceleration seems a lot smoother now and the pedal doesn't stick at all, even though it wasnt bad before. I'm going to clean my EGR ports soon also soon, hope its as easy as this was. I reccomend cleaning all yours out there too. It's too simple, and helps a lot.
