Don't play with the butterflys though, believe Dan played with his and messed them up

When I had my head and all skimmed, I had the same prob with idle and it was all over the place and stallin on me every time I stopped the car!!!! The air filter was very dirty so cleaned it, and seen the gunk in the throttle body.

Its 4 bolts that take 2 ticks to take off. Use carb cleaner and kitchen roll to clean it. Was so clean when I was done and she run like new car. Idle was perfect. Was crazy the difference!!

DO IT!!!!!!!!!!

Definatly a top tip this one Eratic idle - 9/10 is a filthy TB So always check that 1st

Lets us know how u get on buddy

ok, just about to head to the shop to get some carb cleaner, I find on the net some tips not to use the normal carb cleaner but a specific throttle body cleaner.

Also I found on youtube a guy cleaned with carb cleaner and then also with a bit of brake clener?

One guy mentioned that some Ford cars specificaly shouldn't be cleaned with carb/throttle body cleaners because of some special coating they have on the TB.

So i want to be sure not to mess something up. I think I can get the carb cleaner spray. for throttle body spray I'm not sure.
cheers.

Trust me, ur readin to much into it. Jus any carb cleaner spray. Worked a treat on mines. 15 min job
