I took off the throttle body yesterday for cleaning...no problems. I looked down the accordian tube between the TB and MAF and saw this little sensor that plugged into a 2-wire connector outside. The business-end of the sensor in the accordian tube was noticably coated with a black substance. Is this protective coating from the factory or is it junk that I should clean off?
