Thank you!!! Learning and teaching my own son as we go. I've had my '05 for about 7 years, and she's part of the family. Wish your son the best with her
Had an issue when I exchanged battery. Watched the video to see how to reset idle part of your video 14 minutes into it, you have get way of showing “ how to” and your explanation rocked! Thanks for your expertise thanks
I’m about to try this before I go and pay over $300 for a throttle body replacement or just to get it cleaned 😅 and being charged like a replacement 😑 you make it seem easy, so I’ll give it a try ☺️
6:11 Indeed, no need to be afraid as long as the throttle body is entirely unplugged electrically, and you make sure to open the plate gently and slowly so as to not damage the delicate gear train inside the inner workings. :) This is an often overlooked maintenance job that can make a big idle quality improvement!
Thanks for this video! I just cleaned my throttle body. I was having idle issues when using my AC. Slightly erratic idle and when coming to a stop a very slight thump. The problem is gone. Toyota Tacoma 2015 V6 30,600 miles.
great video… hv a 2006 runner… u showed mr how i can clean the throttle body diy… no back ground in fixing cars … learned by youtube… thanks for clearly explaining how to step by step
If you're going to clean the throttle body, I would also recommend a couple of other things to do at the same time. 1. Replace Air Filter 2. Clean the MAF (Mass Air Flow Sensors) with nothing but a MAF Spray cleaner, and do not wipe or touch the sensitive wire, just spray and let air dry.
Nice job! Wow you have the manual i have an automatic unfortunately. I'd love to get the manual transmission but they're so hard to find for the v6 4x4..
PCV is positive crankcase ventilation & it’s not attached to your throttle body. It’s mounted toward the back of the engine ( up top ) on the driver’s side.
Thanks for sharing that much of experience and knowledge Sr, I really appreciate it. I can feel confident doing it my self. God bless you and your family and business. Thanks for helping your son, blessings.
Clean the mass air sensor & throttle body because my, 2011 4WD Tacoma automatic, idles at 1000 RPM. After cleaning these two items it still idles around 1000 or 11000 RPM. I think this is a little high
I was told the same thing, they said to have someone inside the truck, turn the key to the on position, but not actually start it, and very slowly press the gas pedal so the butterfly opens up while someone else cleans it.
I think if I can avoid not taking off throttle body butterfly just spray some intake cleaner and get the brushes to clean out my rifle move it a around a bit, a play some kind of rag to clean out carbonite and then wrap some kind of rag around brush that is long- to clean the barrel of a airflow just put back air filter back on???, that might not be the best way but we avoid any trouble with technical issues for breaking sensors and computer mapping, but doing that holding the butterfly open properly with that cause any damage brush cleaner for a rifle for example
If you do it that way , be sure to have the key out of the ignition or the idle control control could grab a finger real hard. you can gently open the butterfly valve without damage . A rifle cleaning brush would be ok
I have a 07 Tacoma 2wd auto and out of no where a few months ago I would start to slow down while on the highway. When this happens and I try to accelerate the rpms will go up but the speed will barley increase. This usually lasts for 10-20 seconds then it instantly frees up and feels like you hit the nitrous button cause it's such a noticeable change in speed. Ive checked over my brakes assuming they were somehow applying by themselves slightly and also checked my air filter. Not sure if might be a dirty MAF or TB possibly bad coil but it only does it while I'm on the highway never on backroads. No check engine lights either I'm stumped.
Revs increasing with no increase in speed is usually transmission related . Check your fluid levels with the engine warm and running . Too high is just as bad as too low.
@@RevBCSTi It actually just went away one day. Then I had a shaking in my steering wheel which only happens on the highway around 60mph. I also my brakes applying themselves which sucked. I replaced my master cylinder, booster, calipers and rotors. It's been very frustrating. The truck driver great on city streets and doesn't have any shifting issues or shaking issues but on the highway it's hit or miss.
@@fupabox ok so cleaned out throttle body and Maf sensor and still have the shaking but mainly when I’m Parked ,, rpm still normal no fluctuations only thing I see that it’s around 7500 rpm at idle but doesn’t bounce around
Am having the same problem in my 2008 Tacoma, I have changed all the spark plugs to new ones, yet no improvement. Please how did you solve yours? Thanks 🙏
with modern cars the key in the ignition can "wake up certain computer or body modules " They should have the power removed from them when they are "asleep " or key out of the ignition to prevent sudden power being pushed into the circuit . If the battery sparks or the terminals get crossed while installing the battery ,then the modules that are awake with the key in the ignition could be damaged .
He's 26 and working full time . I even have 2 grandkids ..scary how fast it all goes. We do a lot of the work together and I do some when I have time off and he's working.
