Stock Throttle Body

zinc02GT · August 22nd, 2008, 12:54 PM

So, I hear that inside the stock throttle body there is a grease inside that is meant to catch the little amount od debris that can get into there.

This true?

Would cleaning it out or anyhting like that possibly improve anything?

Is it better to clean it with a rag by hand or use chemicals?

HMUSN · August 22nd, 2008, 04:32 PM

just spray some brake cleaner on it and wipe it off with a rag.

JASonic · August 22nd, 2008, 04:33 PM
