Throttle Body Cleaning Procedure
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Saturn Vue. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The throttle bore may be cleaned on-vehicle using Carburetor Cleaner (21007432) and a shop towel. Follow instructions on container. Do not use a cleaner that contains methyl ethyl ketone, an extremely strong solvent that is not necessary for removing this type of deposit. If air passage has heavy deposits, remove throttle body for complete cleaning. See THROTTLE BODY .
