Just want to give you a shout out. I've watched and used many of your videos since I bought a 2009 F-150 last year. I'm retired Navy and was an aircraft mechanic for 20 years. Your videos have been a blessing to me and have saved me a ton of money. I've always worked on my own cars and trucks but the knowledge in getting from your videos is huge. I don't think people understand what it takes for you to put these out as far as time and effort goes. So thank you so very much Sir. Bravo Zulu, a Navy term meaning Job Well Done.

Please tell me that nothing has to be (reset) when unplugging it.

So gratifying hearing the spray and seeing the black carbon gunk slowly melt. Mesmerizing!

I made the mistake of trying to clean mine while it was still energized and managed to damage it, causing it to idle worse, stall and hunt, had to get a replacement one and now this one is showing similar symptoms years later I know how to clean it properly thanks to your video

Love the Christian music in the background! I've been catching bits and pieces in your vids!

Great video. At $50 for a replacement throttle body, I decided to just replace it in my 2009 Escape Hybrid w 120k miles. Your other video detailing those steps helped significantly. Great work!

8+ million views for a reason. It's the best video on KZread for cleaning your ETB.

Your video helped me understand why I should have the throttle body service done that my service provider recommended. Thank you. Very interesting to watch!

Thanks for the video! I just cleaned my 2010 ford fusion's throttle body and it is way more responsive and idles great. It only took 30 minutes and thanks for showing me the right way to clean it. Didn't cut my finger off or damage the throttle body. :)

POWER RESTORED! 2009 F150 5.4L 3v - 180,000 miles. I cleaned the TB per these instructions and performed a relearn from the other video. During the first test drive, the throttle seemed like it was sticking. Like it was in cruise control. When I came to a stop, it was surging back and forth between 700rpm and almost 2000. I could shut off the engine, restart, and it would idle great, very smooth. As soon as I gave any throttle, it would start surging again. I rechecked my fittings and plugs. Started back up, idle was good until I touched the pedal. It still surged but was diminished some. But it was like it was still trying to figure out the idle. So I barely taped the throttle, it would rev and hold for a moment then come back down to a smooth idle. Did another shut off and restart. Then it was idling perfect even when I revved the engine; it came back down to normal idle. Did another test drive, WOW! Significantly noticeable power increase. Now onto the induction service. I could see down into the intake manifold, and it was quite dirty. THANK YOU, FordTeckMakuloco!

I second this. Right around a year ago this month, actually, I cleaned the throttle body in my trailblazer that had 155K miles of crap on it, and failed to keep the electronics to the top, and ended up getting some cleaner inside, causing a high cold start idle and lots of random fluctuation. Finally, I went and bought a good used one from a salvage yard today, cleaned it up while keeping the electronics to the top the whole time, and never aiming the spray directly at the hole for the rod of the butterfly valve, and so far it's fixed my issues.

So satisfying to see something dirty being cleaned. 😉

If its a ford or lincoln and I need a repair video, you are the first I go to. Thank you for your videos.

Thanks for the video, I had to do this in an auto parts store parking lot while on vacation with my family. The truck would die every time it came to a stop. I watched the video real quick, went in and bought some tools & cleaner and got it cleaned. The truck has ran fine since then!

Thanks a million for this video tutorial. Worked all night and on my way home my car stalled after I exited the highway and stopped at the light. I was able to put the truck in neutral and restart my 2004 4.6L Explorer. For years I’ve noticed that @80mph uphill or cruising my SUV would give a slightly smooth trot, it was noticeable because everyone head would give a steady nod while riding ein my SUV. I didn’t mind because I had no issues until my 2nd battery and 2nd alternator died. The battery and alternator 1st died in 4yrs. I spent over 6 $Bills in 2008 and 10yrs later I decided to change them myself. One thing I didn’t know was that I had to reset the computer memory and once my battery and alternator had been replaced I noticed the car idling at +/-400RPM and got a code: P0506 Idle Control System RPM - Lower Than Expexted two days later. I used MAF cleaner, lint free wipes and a clean nylon pipe cleaner without removing the valve since I do not have the replacement gaskets This week. I’ll monitor the result.

Option for rear AC and non. Thermostat too. Ours is at 243k miles and I guess everything just had to take a dump all at the same time.

Once the cleaning is complete, I also put a drop or two of oil (3 in 1 oil, etc) in both pivot points of the butterfly and work the oil in a bit, then wipe down any excess. It helps to keep that moving joint lubricated and moisture/ice free.

can't resist comment, the gunk causing the carbon and varnish is from petroleum products, gasoline and lubricating oil vapors. So putting a drop of oil on the pivot points of the butterfly is harmless. the temperatures of the throttle body are not high enough to cook the oil and even if so it is not going to cause a major failure anymore than the normal deposits that will come with time. The oil is effective for a time, whether it is long enough or whether the lubricated parts really experience a beneficial difference in function I can't say but the thinking sure seems right, can't hurt is the big point here.

For my 2009 Jeep Compas 2.4L, my ETC (Electronic Throttle Conttol) light has come on from time-to-time, each time the Compass went into "limp mode". It's driving fine now, but yesterday, it went into limp mode for about 20 minutes, where before it did it for a second or two. The throttle body is about $230. Just wondering if that was the problem or maybe something else. A garage to do a dashboard light diagnostic would cost over $100 which I'd like to avoid. Maybe I should just take out the existing throttle body and clean it up first before doing anything else? Not sure what else to do.

Hi, thanks so much for sharing. I think i have an issue with the throttle sensor. It's drained in oil/diesel mixture every instance that i check for. When i unplug the sensor cable the engine runs solidly. Whenever it's attached the rpm's are throttled down. To you have an idea to this?

nice video, thanks for the upload

I cleaned mine with carb/intake cleaner before watching this video, what will happen to my throttle body? it was very dirty but it didn't have any coked on carbon like in this video. But when I sprayed carb cleaner, thick black liquid flowed and there was loads of it. I read that the throttle body valve itself has some kind of covering on it? My car seems to be running fine after cleaning it anyway but my problem wasn't the valve it was a breather pipe the whole time.

Good stuff to know! Thanks for your great video. I 've seen a bunch that never mention the electronic throttle pitfalls... I'm wondering if anyone can answer my question. In the process of getting to the root of fuel trim problems, I was going to clean the throttle body. When I opened it up, however, I discovered that it was clean as new, no exaggeration. The car has 43000 miles on it. I have run techron through the car on a semi-regular basis, and my previous tank of gas I ran the complete fuel system cleaner through it. But I don't understand how that would affect the throttle body. Also, what about the possibility of a stuck PCV valve keeping it from getting dirty? Though I would expect that would throw a code, which my computer has never thrown. thanks

...nicely done sir, is it safe to move the plate and not affect the TB's function, i have cleaned my fiesta's TB (for the 1st time) using quick dry contact cleaner and a microfiber cloth, but i never moved the plate since i'm not sure about it and i might damage the TB, is it safe to move the plate?

so if you push on the throttle plate while it's plugged in ( not against the spring tension, but the other way ) and it clicks a couple of times. what kind of damage could you do to it? because i did that, and i stopped after moving it less than 1/4 in, and now my car is shifting into 2nd, 3rd, and 4th at about 3-4,000 rpms which is way higher than normal. and now when i,m in overdrive its rpm is at 2,000 at 70 mph. and now it's using a lot more gas because of it. i thought i musta damaged it, so i installed a new electronic throttle body on it today, but it's still the same. so maybe i need to do a relearn procedure on it? what do you think?

Thank you

Give it a shot of starting spray and it starts and runs as Normal. Do you have any suggestions for me to check or replace?

before I seen your video I moved my throttle while everything was connected, just wanted to get a quick look at possible debris.. started my car up haven't noticed any MAJOR problems although my rpm idle seems low...what are the chances I threw off any sensors? and also what are some signs to look for if I did possibly fuck up my car?....07 Monte Carlo SS btw..ty

Ahh the old p115e. My 09 f150 started detonating under load and idling rough. Then that code popped up. Both of my upstream o2s throw a light at the same time but I'm 100% certain that the tsb will fix that..

Any concern for knocking the butterfly out of "calibration"?

Was using top engine cleaner and moved throttle plate with my finger to allow spray to get in while truck was running drove it for months now having p21 code combos, it's not pedal might be throttle sensor or do you think I fried the DC motor.

I was wondering how to get it to stay open without damaging it but also without having to keep pressure on the accelerator. I know these things need cleaned out once in a while and that can really help. I once had a car that did not have an electronic one and I had to clean that throttle body at least one time. It was because the idle air motor was stuck and I had to keep constant pressure on the accelerator to keep the car from stalling even if I was at a stop. I would imagine that having to do that too much can't be good for the car but I only had a couple miles to travel with it in that condition and I live on back roads. Aside from a couple traffic lights before getting on the back roads it was only a bit tricky. Once I cleaned it out that problem came to a quick end..

disconnect the battery ground, then the throttle body connector , and only after that can then move the plate manually, Never mess with moving the throttle plate with power on as the computer will see it as unintended throttle movement that's not commanded and it will try and drive the motor to jam the throttle back closed with considerable force to correct it back to the position where its expected to be . This will injure your finger and damage the throttle servo drive mechanism. please correct me if I am wrong.. flushing all that gunk into your engine intake is a bad thing to do anyway, and you can not clean it properly when its mounted.
