    This guy is a genius, I’m a DIY person and my car ran rough at idle with no check engine lights at all. The car was also very very snappy when you would accelerate so I cleaned the throttle body and I can’t even feel the motor at idle and it’s a very easy smooth takeoff instead of a jerky take off.

    If you gently move the throttle plate/butterfly, you should do no damage. Just don't let it snap back after you fully open it. Also, I would use a plastic tool to hold it open, not a metal screwdriver.

    That's good advice, I didn't know I could cause harm with the cleaner. Some shops are selling an intake clean for engines with direct injection, which basically sprays a mist of cleaner into the intake, while running, to loosen caked debris on the sidewall leading to the top of the intake valve. I've often wondered if flakes of hard carbon might cause a problem inside the cylinder if they are swept in with the cleaner. It seems a little safer to wait for a time when the intake is off to do that kind of intake cleaning, where one can have a little better control.

    • @johnharrison5656
      @johnharrison5656 Рік тому +2

      That’s a valid concern, and I agree that removing the heads, and doing a valve job is best! The hot flakes falling into the cylinder from the valve, would cause premature detonation of the fuel. By spraying the cleaner, you really don’t know how much of the carbon is removed. Mostly, it would loosen the deposits enough to cause knock more frequently leading to a host of other potential issues. It might could be beneficial if it was done as a preventative measure, but I definitely wouldn’t try it on a vehicle that is already having problems from carbon buildup. With direct injection, the best offense is a good defense. Always run higher octane gas from the start.

    Be careful! W some vehicles people have told me to never move the butterfly valve manually. This can somehow screw up the throttle body sensor or damage it because of the way it's built and takes readings. You may also need to perform an idle reset after any of this. Which sometimes can be a quick DIY procedure involving a gas pedal and ignition combo, followed by a bit of highway driving.

      Here’s the thing, if it’s a older car and it has a manual throttle body with the cable you can pull on to increase the idle speed and a IAC tps and all that crap on it, it’s okay to handle with your hands. If it’s a newer model and has a all electric throttle body where it’s just the black computerized part on the side, and that’s it. Then do NOT stick your hand in it. Even with the battery unplugged those things can hold power, and there have been stories of them flipping out when being touched and snapping shut, which would take your fingers right off

    Thanks, I have a 2011 Buick enclave. I bought it at auction in April. It took the state a month to get back with title. So now I have tag, title, insurance. And have thoroughly enjoyed prowling around the neighborhood late night to get a feel for it. So, the problem. The what appears to be usual abs light. So, I have not gotten around to figuring which wheel the error is coming from. Back to the low idle. I was coming back from an event on the highway, on exiting back to city streets. A wide gentle curve from exit to city street and at the absolute worst possible time the engine died and the pig nearly coasted into a lane of cars waiting at the light. I quickly threw it into neutral and hit the key, it started up with a brake light I had not seen before on the dash. Got back to the house off loaded some groceries and took a well deserved whizz. Started the Buick back up again. No brake light. I think I got off extremely light. Anyway, I moved that hose out the throttle body and mass air flow sensor thing up from "around to it" to first thing in the morning before it gets hot out. I think I am about due for a cheap OBDII reader to arrive tomorrow as well. Added to the mix, I had dumped a jug of crc catalytic converter cleaner on top of a quarter tank, did the obligatory 15 miles of normal driving. Filled up and went to the event, stopped at a store and got a bag of late night stuff. Hit the road and had the Buick jump up and shout boo at me. I am interested in what I will find with an OBDII code reader.

    Some throttle bodies have a coating that mechanical tools can scratch up. Do NOT clean you throttle body like this. I would never recommend using anything abrasive on a throttle body. The coating is there to prevent aluminum corrosion that can hang up the throttle plates. Use only throttle body aproved cleaners. And if you're worried about the internal engine parts, removed the throttle body then clean it. Plus, not all throttle bodies are the same, some have air bypass solenoids for idle, which often also gets plugged up with carbon and require cleaning.

  • @ericg4915
    @ericg4915 Рік тому +9

    A good product is seafoam spray. Not the stuff that goes in the tank, they have a spray can that is an intake cleaner and upper engine cleaner. You take the clamp off right before the throttle body, put in the straw and then tighten everything back up and spray the whole can until it's empty while car runs at 2000 rpms. It does a great job at cleaning the throttle body and the engine, I do it every year as a preventive measure so my throttle body never gets to the point that it has to be cleaned by hand. It's just an all around good way to keep the motor clean

      removing the throttle body is an extra step that's not needed, the ring that normally builds up can be wiped off with no issue. and if there is any debris they are so micro that it would not hurt anything, by doing it this way you can get 99.9% of it with out removing it.

      Normally when you clean a dirty throttle body your supposed to do a idle relearn on the car where you basically restart it because the car adjusts to a dirty TB and once you clean it it doesn't have to open as much but the car doesn't know that. So just look up how to do a idle relearn on your car and that should fix your issue I think

    I overhauled my stock camaro ss L99 engine heads, valves are now in excellent condition like new, and tight enough. Replaced springs, valve steam rubbers, pushrods, rockers , spark plugs , cleaned valve lifters and injectors (no collapsed lifters on 100K mileage). Replaced all timing components and VVT along with camshaft sensor and magnet. Service Stabilitrak msg is still comes on during cranking along with a rough idle and a clicking noise. Valve lifters were found good but several of them had a scratches on the rollers. Oil pump is new, 50 psi on cruising and 26-29 psi on hot idle. Any suggestions ?? No fault codes

    My 2024 Mazda CX-50 turbo has been having rough idle but it's very intermittent, maybe once every 500-1000 miles. It's also a new car so carbon buildup is unlikely. I think the first time I had the issue the odometer was only at around 1500 miles. I took it to the dealership recently but they weren't able to replicate the issue so they just gave the car back.

Car starts up without any problem. The next day, the check engine light came on and I got a code P0174 (4/6) fuel trim system lean bank 2. The RPM are moving up and down and the engine starts coughing on idle. I was looking for any advice to resolve this issue.

    If you have an electric throttle body,have someone or stick etc press the gas pedal all the way to the floor,this open the throttle all the way then cleanit,when finish ease the pedal up easy.If you don't,the computer has to relearn it or you have to get a new one.Cable is not electric.You can open it with screw driver any way you want .keep engine off.This experience,it happen to me.

      Do you mean you did not open the throttle with your hand? My brother and I cleaned mine by spraying it while it was on the engine (2015 Buick), not by the method you described. It was idling really rough after. I had the throttle body recalibrated, put Seafoam in the gas tank on two occasions, also in the crankcase per instructions on the can. It is now 85% better. What more would you advise I check? Took it to the Buick dealer and they were clueless. Thanks

  • @spaceboy3101
    @spaceboy3101 Місяць тому

    I hope this fixes my issue and I hope I can get my TB off; I'm not good with cars and I hate working on them. I just clean my MAF last night and it didn't make any difference at all, but I still have to do the plug pull test I just found out about where you pull the connector while the car is running and if there's no change then your sensor is just bad and needs replaced.
    If the TB doesn't do it, then based on other vids, I'll be checking the IAC, vacuum leaks, pcv, maybe the egr.
    My car currently idles fine when cold but has low power for driving, but when the engine warms up, it drops from 1500 rpm to 500 rpm and runs very rough, and then when I put it in gear it wants to stall and when driving I have little to no power and can get stuck in traffic and can't go up hills, basically undriveable.
    But also a clue is that this was a gradual problem that developed over years and only recently just kind of took a nose dive. I'm sure that narrows it down but without talking to someone, I don't know what.
    Unfortunately my problem is compounded with being homeless, broke and unable to work with this undrivable car. If I manage to get this issue fixed then I still need a water pump and timing belt and can only drive the car for 20 minutes before the fluid leaks out, and then it needs full break work. Hanging by a thread here and now winter is setting in so no more warm days for working on the car.

    Mine has a rough idle after I give it a bit of gas and then it goes back to 900 rpm after oscillating between 1250 and 500 a couple of times. The engine shakes a bit, too and I think I even heard a misfire after revving it to 3000 rpm. It had a blown vacuum hose which I changed. The rough idle was even more pronounced before that. I don't know if it's ignition, fuel system or the throttle body. I'll check the throttle body first. The spark plugs, distributor cap and spark cables are new (were also broken). I'm worried it might have something to do with the ignition, because the car has other electrical problems involving the lights.
