I was looking around, and I found a bunch of grime on my throttle body. Is this normal? I took it apart because the whole lid/maf assembly was a bit wobbly, and when I tried to put it back on, the bottom part of the bellows seemed to be pinched a bit, leaving a small opening on the bottom.
(IMG:http://www.allmod.net/PostCamTB001.jpg) I reattached everything, and it seemed to fit better now, without any slits/openings. Should I take it apart and make it all shiney? How safe is it for a mechanical idiot to clean the throttlebody? What should I use? Would any generic degreaser and a rag do? sorry for being a mechanical idiot, Marcin |
