    I cleaned my throttle body this morning and the acceleration is better than ever. As well sometimes my rpm’s would fluctuate but now it stays very steady. Would 100% recommend cleaning it if you notice anything in the video cause my problems were fixed after I cleaned it.

    Thank you for sharing the video about the symptoms of a dirty throttle. As a throttle body manufacturer, it's always great to see informative content about maintaining and diagnosing issues with throttle bodies. Your tips on when to clean a dirty throttle and its location in a car will be useful for our customers who may be experiencing acceleration delay, engine light on with code P0121, rough idle, or poor mpg. Keep up the great work and thanks again for sharing this informative video!👍

    When I clean mine always check the 3! That's what I do mine. Throttle Body! MAF Sensor and Air Filter! Those 3! After I clean these 3! Then I'm gonna move on to Spark plugs all 6 of them, IF 1 or 2 of them are not good then I'm gonna be replacing all 6 Sparkplugs. Then once I'm done I'm gonna go check the ignition coil. Then the Fuel Injectors will be follow up. This is how I maintain mine I only Do it myself DIY. that's why I never had a Lean or Rich Fuel on my vehicles. They're all Running Efficient and Clean despite of their High Mileage

      hello Twinbee.. My Nissan qashqai 2012 petrol car is cutting out on power .. I had been to many service centres without any solution. The mechanic finally thinks the problem could be with Throttle body. What is your opnion.. we have cleared all other issues like fuel tank issues, air flow sensor and Crank shaft sensor. Any ideas what to do if throttle body replacement doesnt solve the issue ?

    My 2002 Toyota Corolla when pulling off from 1st gear to 2nd i get bucking sound when engine is cold going to warm temperature. It's also accelerates really slow when i floor the gas pedal. Also when the engine is cold and i tumble the starter it takes a while to start but once the engine is warm and turned off and i tumble again, it starts up pretty quickly. So is it really the bucking that I'm getting is because of the dirty throttle body and not the transmission or any electrical?

    How can this get dirty when it intakes filtered air?
    Just discovered a vacuum hose in air intake between air filter and throttle body. That Can't be good, probably sucking up crap from the engine.

    If you sometimes idle at a higher rpm after driving a bit. That may be a bad or dirty throttle body as well. Happened on my car with electronic throttle.

    First of all, great video!
    Gang, If you ever get a P2103 code, don't rush to buy a new throttle control unit. For about a week or so, my 2005 Prius had been flashing the triangle of death, without a check engine light until today.
    The first thing I did was to take the breather element off the top of the throttle body and was surprised that it came off by just removing the two bolts on top.
    The screw-in metal clamp at the bottom had not been securely tightened by my mechanic over six months ago or so.
    Luckily, I had the throttle body cleaner spray and my wife's new toothbrush.
    I cleaned the @(#$#! out of it and to my surprise, the car is no longer driving sluggishly and the check engine code has come off.
    Just sharing my experience with all of you. Always remember to check to make sure all your clamps are tightened all the way.
    Over and out.

    i got a 2010 mazdaspeed 3 and it will sometimes run fine or it will die. There will usually be a build up till that point like rough idle or just cutout while driving (it wont bog down just completely cut out for micro periods of time then will usually result in it dying atp) replaced fuel pump and still has the issue.

      @easyautofix  Рік тому +1

      @@moenfam2098 Tuning doesn't help the diagnosis process but usually, it is common for P0192 and P0193 codes to appear when the fuel pressure is not within the specified range. P0089 indicates a problem in the fuel pressure regulator system. These three codes are often related to each other. Some potential solutions for these codes may include replacing the fuel pressure regulator, checking for torn wires or corroded connectors, replacing the fuel filter, checking the fuel pump relay, or replacing the fuel pressure sensor. In some cases, using a fuel system cleaner may help resolve the issue.

    My 2015 Hyundai Elantra is starting to misfire and it has hard shifts when I apply the brakes. It accelerates slowly and holds speed in 2nd gear even without me pushing the gas pedal. Also, it idles harder when I turn air on. No check engine light on though. I haven't checked for codes, but I'm thinking maybe a dirty air intake valve or maybe a coil pack?

When light turns green i just lightly pressed on the gas pedal and it goes into limp mode. There are no check engine light or codes. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    One more issue not covered ..total loss if power.. and engine shutdown.. I have had this on two Saturn ion vehicles the problem is intermittent with the car off if you wait 5 to 10 minutes it will restart and drive fine for a week a month two weeks 3 days whatever then it will happen again cleaning the throttle body will not help you have to replace the unit so if you're driving along and you lose everything and have all kinds of lights just like an airplane would and it catastrophe replace it do not clean it you can buy them at junk yards for 50 or 60 bucks good luck out there

      In my experience, really harsh vibrations are often times bad ignition coils. Change the plugs and check the coils while you're at it. I might have a video on my channel, honestly can't remember.
