Okay somewhere along the line the air filter fell off from my intake, don't know if its my fault or the last people that serviced it, doesn't matter. But i'm wondering what i need to clean since obviously some dust has gotten up in there. I'm planning on cleaning the IAC valve, but what else should be cleaned?
 
Throttle plate....

It's inside the TBI :lol:



































Get a can of Gumout throttle body and air intake cleaner for fuel injected engines. Do most of the can as described, then save a little bit to clean out the IAC.
 
Blake , remove the intake tube completely, Where the throttle cables go to is the throttle body, Inside the is the plate... You can spray a rag and wipe or lightly spray the plate.. ALSO open the throttle by moving the cable and clean inside also...
