What to use to clean Throttle Body
Valvoline has a 'Carb, Choke, and Throttle Body Cleaner'. Wondering if anyone's used this instead of having Acura do the cleaning using whatever they use?

Same stuff... to do it properly you have to take off the throttle body. To do it easily spray some cleaner down the throat and scrub it with an old toothbrush. Be sure to get the back of the throttle plate. Hold onto the straw when you spray, it could shoot into the manifold.
