What do you use to clean the IAC and the throttle body, what should I buy from the parts store to clean it. Thanks!

i used mineral spirits(parts cleaner solution). but simple green or carb cleaner should work. just make sure to blow it out and don't let it soak too long because if i can remember right, there's rubber in there.

So just spray or pour it in let it soak for a couple minutes and blow out using a can of air? How about the throttle body, how do you actualy clean it, using a rag, etc? Thx again

Carb cleaner-any crap will do. I got some cheapo stuff for $1.99 at Murray's.

-IAC-since the carb cleaner is in an aerosol can, just spray in one of the two holes and let it soak for a couple minutes then dump it out. It'll evaporate really quick.

-TB: I used carb cleaner and an old tooth brush and just scrubbed the deposits and cleaned with a napkin.
