02/11/2022Q: How to clean the Throttle Body?
A:
You need to remove the air cleaner intake duct and inspect the throttle body bore and the throttle valve plate for deposits. You must open the throttle valve to inspect all of the surfaces. Then you can clean the throttle body bore and the throttle valve plate using a clean shop towel with GM Top Engine Cleaner, GM P/N 1052626 (Canadian P/N 993026), or an equivalent product. If the deposits are excessive, you can remove and disassemble the throttle body for cleaning. After disassembly, you can clean the throttle body using parts cleaning brush, and do not immerse the throttle body in any cleaning solvent. If you removed and disassembled the throttle body for cleaning, you can assemble and install the throttle body, and install the air cleaner intake duct.
