hi all
whats the best product to clean throttle body with? do i have to take it out or clean it without taking it out? whats the best way to do it?(lexus is200,2001 6 cylinders)

ive always used carb cleaner, ive never done it on my is200 but on other cars you can do it either on the car or off, carb cleaner drys quickly so it wont go into your engine.

I've used silicone in the past just to stop air leaks from cracks etc, if you use black you shouldn't notice it either.

carb cleaner is very good. best with engine on at high revs.

i took mine off & blasted it with parrafin! :P
