What is cleaning the throttle body all about?

In order to run efficiently and smoothly, your vehicle needs a fuel mixture that is a perfect combination of air and gas. The air intake system is responsible for providing the air part of this equation. The throttle body is the component of the air intake system that determines exactly how much air to let combine with the fuel. When the throttle body is dirty it’s unable to let the right amount of air into the engine.

Keep in mind:

  • The air intake ducts should be examined when the throttle body is cleaned.
  • When the throttle body is cleaned, the entire air intake system should be inspected.

How it's done:

  • Take the snorkle off the throttle body
  • Spray brake cleaner on the throttle plate
  • Scrub plate with a brush
  • Spray the brake cleaner again
  • Reconnect snorkle

Our recommendation:

Your entire air intake system should be thoroughly examined during routine maintenance and servicing. Consult your owner's manual to see how frequently your throttle body should be cleaned.

What is a common symptom indicating you need to clean the throttle body?

  • Racing noise from the engine

How important is this service?

The air intake system draws air from outside of the vehicle, and blends it with the gas to create the optimal fuel mixture for your vehicle. The throttle body is the part of this system responsible for controlling exactly how much air is added to the gas. When the throttle body gets dirty, it is unable to allow the optimum amount of air into the air intake system, and the air-gas equation will be incorrect. As a result, your engine will not run smoothly.

Jaguar S-Type V8-4.0L - Window Regulator Replacement (Driver Side Front) - Baytown, Texas
When Micheal arrived to do the initial evaluation of what was needed to repairmy wife's car window he had taken the time to look up the possible problems with the window of my wife's Jaguar on line.With this home work before hand I feel that the initial $70.00 charged for the diagnose was a little extreme ,he did not have to really do anything much but check which was the most common cause for the electric window malfunction and suggest it. That would have skipped the $70.00 diagnostic cost.I had given the description on line so the trip to diagnose may have not been really necessary.So,in my mind that part of the process turn into an precievd over charge. The total cost became about the same as if I had dropped the car to a local Mechanic shop when adding the diagnostic charge of $70.00 additional cost to the final bill. I concede convenience does trump driving the car to an auto mechanic ( particularly when the window would not roll up )but the proposed price saving indicated on my estimate was ultimately not there. Michael did stay in touch every step of the process,so I can give him an A grade there. The window works fine so the work he preformed gives him an A grade also. He did if fact ultimately do an over all assessment of the vehicle and has suggested that the cylinders on 4 and 8 are miss firing.You can feel the miss fire and see the rpm gauge go suddenly down while the car runs.Micheal has suggested that it may be possibly be the spark plugs, boots on the spark plug wires or even spark plug coils. The first suggested attempt to fix the miss fire would be the least expensive (which is smart and shows his practicality) this would be the replacing the spark plugs, the spark plug wires can be inspected at that time too. I will set up an appointment for this suggested process of procedure in elimination to locate the problem.I will review the jobs success afterwards.
