So what is the procedure to clean an electronic throttle body if we can't clean it manually
Knowing that the majority of car's nowadays are equipped with electronic one
great vid
i did clean my throttle body position already.but i'm still having a problem on a cold start.what do u think is wrong with it.
Why some throttle bodies have water hoses/coolant flowing?
Awesome video man, really helpful.
will that cause it to die completely, and then restart ride away?
FYI cleaning the throttle body is called Maintenance too, so if it doesn't solve you're problem you still Maintenanced bro.
very informative, information, thanks, ima watch it again ,cause I'm kida slow ,good job brother.
Thanks For Taking Me To Class I needed This info !
Nicely Done :)
whats the brand and quality of those blue gloves?,I find habor freight got the strongest so far...cant remember the name
Hmm, not so simple with today's "drive by wire"cars, you risk damaging the TB or hopefully it "re-learns" the correct values or off to the dealer you go.
could that also cause the car to not idle?
Really good, as usual. Of course, my car has an electronic throttle control.
great description of the symptoms, best video out here thanks!
Incredibly helpful. Thank you. Great job.
Have 94 ram 1500 5.2l with 5speed manual trans and in second gear starting from dead stop it wants to some what kind stall with a bit of a dieseling affect. cleaned throttle body and replaced IAC
Hey Ratchets and Wrenches thanks for all of your help. Your videos are awesome. I have a 93 civic that's been idle surging occasionally. I removed the throttle body to check it out. I also found some small cracks on three different vacuum hoses that all connect to the throttle body. The plunger on the idle air control valve does not seal all the way when resting. Could this mess with an idle surge or could it just be a leaky vacuum hose? The IAC is a pretty expensive piece so I'm hoping it isn't the problem.
great video and very informative, better then the others i tried to watch...
Will this work on low idle And shut off ?
