[QB]Jon M - Possibly the Throttle Body has been cleaned by wiping it, which is a 'no-no' - threatened by 'death'. I am told it has a 'special coating' and should only be cleaned with Throttle Body Cleaner
part on special coating is right, it is a corrosion inhibiting, erosion resistant super slick coating, if the throttle body was ever cleaned with a rag it needs to be replaced. Actually, the throttle body only meters air, from the air filter, it should never need cleaning.
