Hi all, Today, I was cleaning my throttlebody and "kaypo", took torch and shine inside. WOW ! To my surprise, deep inside is all BLACK !!! COATED BLACK !!! As much as I can reached, I wiped away those black stain. But, deep inside how ? Even I sprayed the Carb Cleaner also no use ... I think those area are well into the intake manifold area already ... Question here is, am I overworrying ?

This was discussed previously, but I finally got a really nice pic. The throttlebody is shown here. The objective is to remove the hose to the 2 small arrows and connect them together. Thut coolant does not flow into the bottom of the throttlebody to heat it up. Next, remove the electrical connector (big fat red arrow), as it powers the motor to circulate the coolant. Simple as that ... and best of all, totally reversible. P.S: Each vehicle TB differs

Hi to all, Was reading about this mod where one can increase the size of the throttlebody to get more air into the engine so as to produce more power. E.g. DC5 TB increase from 60mm to 62mm by simply bored out ... Spoon TB just simply expand the connecting pipe (where the plastic attached), so the TB is still 60mm, but the intake is tapered ... thus producing extra 6hp !!! Does it really help by that few mm ?
