don't any of your clean your throttle bodies?
Me, I'm off to change the air in my tires. Not a lot of people realize that old air does not have the same inflation properties as fresh air.

I dunno about any of you, but the back of the my TB had a lot of carbon deposits and oter black **** along with the intake manifold. Cleaning it every 30k would be a good idea.
