Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums General General Ok i'm done cleaning throttle...WOW!1!1 (with pics)

i dunno, my car used to take about half a second to "go", after cleaning and oiling the TB, my car seems to respond much faster. And i can litteraly feel more pull espcially at lower rpm. I don't know if you saw my pics, but my plate was sticking, and the holes in the bottom of the UIM were clogged with CHUNKS of carbon and oil. After resetting the computer and taking a few fast paced runs around the neighborhood, i know that the gas is easier to press, the TB responds much faster, and there IS less air restriction so i know and can feel better performance. Cleaning it is the best "free" "mod" (for lack of a better term) i have ever done to my car. It also helped my idle stay at 750 instead of 600 and below, where my car was shaking trying to keep alive. If nothing more, its made my car more responsive to the touch.
