How to properly clean a throttle body or throttle plate. In this video I will show you exactly how to clean a throttle body. Cleaning the throttle body is an EASY DIY, and can help with a rough idle, check engine light, even sticking throttle. Reprogramming or adapting a throttle body is also recommended after cleaning. #throttlebody #humblemechanic

Very good basic cleaning video! You did not forget safety issues and kept it real! Not everyone has all the tools, but a torque wrench can be borrowed or rented so it is not that hard. The key on torque is not to overdo it. Some guys think you have to grunt it or it isn’t tight. That is another trip to buy a part that isn’t cheap! Duh!

The difference that doing a throttle body adaptation can make is amazing! In SA we have a lot of Mk3 Golfs/Jettas and "Citi Golfs" that use the Bosch MP9 EFI system. The TB's get gummed up and the stepper motor struggles more and more to stabilise idle- a good clean and adaptation (channel 098 on a Launch scan tool) and you're good to go! Even works on getting a car with a 268,272,276 degree cam to idle "properly".

IMPORTANT! If your throttle body is an electric one, don't force open the butterfly as you may break the spring inside. Also the adaptation without vcds or vagcom might work, but always check on a forum of your car on how-to do it properly, as if you aren't prepared it's cost more than let a mechanic clean it for you

@johnaclark1
@johnaclark1 5 лет назад
Some manufacturers don't want you spraying the cleaner directly in the TB because they have special grease on the shaft that can be washed out. Spraying on a rag and wiping it is the preferred method. Also a lot of them have special coatings that can be removed by some harsh cleaners. I'm not sure the scotch brite would be good to use on something like that so be sure and check your service data before cleaning. Lastly, some vehicles it is impossible to readapt the TB learn values without an expensive bidirectional scan tool (like VCDS.) You can end up with some wierd stuff going on with idle. Honda, for example, will not learn the idle without the bidirectional scan tool.
@sony12345111
@sony12345111 5 лет назад
Actually a way around that with Honda is doing a ECM relearn by disconnecting the battery ends and touching then together for 15-30 mins. That forces the car to relearn everything.
@johnaclark1
@johnaclark1 5 лет назад
@@sony12345111 Nope. That does not reset the PCM, nor does it clear the TP data necessary to do an idle relearn. Been there done that and it doesn't work. I've tried it. I can say that definitively on an 08 Odyssey 3.5L V6. It clears all the stored codes and may clear some other data I'm not aware of but not the TP data.

@johnaclark1
@johnaclark1 5 лет назад
@@sony12345111 Yeah, when I finally got the scan tool that would do the job it has a data PID that allows you to see the status of the idle relearn. Disconnecting the battery and holding the terminals together would not put that PID into "learning." It stayed at complete. Only a "PCM Reset" or "Clear TP data" would change it from "complete" to "learning," followed by "complete" after about 10-15 mins of idle with no loads on.
@johnaclark1
@johnaclark1 5 лет назад
@@TheRobertChannel It's not false information. I have an 08 Odyssey that would NOT relearn the idle until the TP data was cleared with the scan tool. The idle learn PID stayed at "complete" until I reset with the tool and it then changed to "Learning" and then 10 minutes or so of idling changed to "complete" and was fixed. I tried your method. It didn't work. Trust me, I tried everything and ended up having to buy a bidirectional scan tool. Once I cleared the TP data all worked well.

Thats what I used. I didn't even remove the throttle body and just sprayed blindly all over it since I couldn't see what it looked like inside anyway. I noticed that there was a difference in how the car responded. One can also repeat the process at a later point though. Of course the best is to just remove it all together but if it involves reprogramming it and getting a new gasket if not available, it's better to avoid it.
@dwalto1977
@dwalto1977 2 года назад
Keep in mind that some manufacturers coat the throttle body bore with a specialized material and if you clean it aggressively, as this video instructs, you will remove the coating and the valve will not seal properly in the bore. This will create a higher than normal idle.
@wellnesspathforme6236
@wellnesspathforme6236 Год назад
Maybe use a plastic "brillo" pad version to do the scrubbing to avoid scratching off the coating. Let it soak for a bit longer and scrub a bit longer. Recommend this be done on cooking pots and pans, too. Keeps residual metal from being ingested and keeps the pans in better shape so they last longer.
@wellnesspathforme6236
@wellnesspathforme6236 Год назад
Use a plastic woven dish scrubber instead of the green scour pads. Let the chemical sit for a little longer and scrub a little longer. Recommend you do the same technique for your dishes, too -- using dish appropriate cleaning supplies, of course. Your pans will last longer and you will reduce the micro dose of metals that end up in your food.

Keep your foot on the brake.. Let the car idle for atleast one minute and then turn on the AC and let idle for atleast 1 minute Final release the E brake and take it for a quick drive so it will re learn the way you drive Done!!!💪

Perform a Honda throttle body relearn Reinstall the Honda throttle body using a new gasket and torque to specifications. Now that the carbon buildup is gone, you must “teach” the computer where the fully closed position is. This is called a Honda throttle body relearn or Honda throttle body reset. Shops perform a Honda throttle body reset with a scan tool, but you can perform it manually by following this procedure: 1) Turn the ignition key to the RUN position for 2-seconds. Do not start the engine. 2) Start the engine and run it at 3,000 RPM until the radiator fans come on. 3) Then let the ending idle for five minutes with no loads (lights, heated seats, rear defogger, blower motor, radio, etc OFF) 4) After five minutes, shut off the engine.

Awesome job cleaning T.B. But why did you leave the intake manifold so dirty (7:29-7:35)???

What I do like in your channel, it is comprehensive. You use comprehensive set of tools, you narrate comprehensive directions, spray comprehensive cleaner. Before dismantling throttle body it's better to disconnect negative terminal off the battery. Touch the valve gently and do not let it shut violently! The throttle valve is actuated by the small motor which is aligned to the small plastic gears. That gears are likely get damaged when the opened throttle valve is let shut violently. Also I want to mention here some throttles feature the grid beyond the valve. The grid if you observe carefully its surface you can discern has its side next to valve edged section, whilst the other side is sloped and smooth. I don't know what this grid stands for, but I can speculate it alignes and disperses air intake to eliminate turbulence. I can say among numerous channels your narration is the most comprehensive.

They say spraying without removing cause some damages in the block.

Toyotas just disconnect the battery for a few minutes. Itl forget everything. All the throttle and adjusted fuel mapping are reset, which is totally annoying cuz after disconnecting the battery its totally not uncommon for a vehicle to run rough or even stall for like a day as the computer relearns and adapts.

trollaphobic most Toyotas have a capacitor in the computer to store power for a minute or so. if you change the battery quickly it'll still remember. I've done it a few times on multiple Toyotas.

Our family car is a 2015 holden commodore sv6 wagon. Yesterday we took it to the mechanic because the RPM was quite low (around 500, should be 750-1000) and it stalled a few times. I did some research and it said a vacuum leak or a dirty throttle body were the two most common causes of this issue and I was right! the mechanic said it was the throttle body so he gave it a clean and the car is back to normal!
