Thread: Cleaning Throttle Body

Well it's not that dirty it's pretty clean, I just want to clean it because I've never
cleaned it before, Should I just use a towel and wipe it down.
And I don't want to make another post since it's kinda related so, I'm also going to
clean my MAF. I'm going to take it out since it's easy to remove. To clean it I just
spray the cleaner on to it and let it air dry correct?
I've searched and some say use TB cleaner for the MAF and other's
say use electrical cleaner, which one would you think would bring
the best results? Thanks

yes use a towel when you clean the throttle body.

be careful when you clean the maf and make sure to let it dry

This should do it

That's off SE-R.net. Thanks for all the info, but I'm just going to use a towel since it's not
that dirty in the first place.

i cleaned my MAF using Wynns Carb Cleaner, i opened the MAF housing and took out the thing. Sprayed it from a small distance to ensure the filament was clean all round, then i wiped down and cleaned out the grill at the end of the maf housing...


did you find much difference after cleaning the TB out? was it worth doing?

Well I haven't done it yet, but I will this Sunday after the Charger game, haha. I'll let
you know if I feel a difference.
Just to make sure when cleaning the MAF after I take it out, I could just
spray everything correct, or is there a part I should try to avoid to spray?
And since I'm cleaning my MAF and TB should I also clean my Pop-Charger
or could that wait?
Thanks

when you clean the maf dont clean the sensor in the maf, stay away from it

Is the sensor where I plug it switch in or is it in the actual MAF?

well there and inside the actual maf

Well I found a cleaner that is made for cleaning MAFs could I spray this everywhere or
should I still try to avoid the sensor ?
