Hi. I'm wondering if there are any tips on cleaning the throttle body on a 1993 del sol si. I've done quite a bit of mechanic work on VW's but I have never cleaned a throttle body and never worked on a del sol. Any tips? What should I look for or try to keep solvent or carb cleaner away from. What should I lube up? Thanks in advance for any tips. any procedural tips or hints? also any tricks to removing the throttle body?

you dont remove the TB. Make sure your car is off first then take off your intake arm and open your TB and SPRAY

there is no lubing necessary after spraying a cleaner in there? Also, I've heard in the past that it's not a good idea to spray clean a throttle body without removing it. The spray dislodges sludge buildup in there and then when you start the car it is sucked into the engine and cooks onto the valves and pistons.

Just get a motor vac.
