Liqui-Moly Throttle Valve Cleaner use??
Hello,

I saw the Liqui-Moly Proline Throttle Valve Cleaner, looks interesting.

Just wondering if anyone here has used it before? Just wanted to see how hard it was.. looks like you need to actually get access to the throttle body, which is a pain...

Thanks!

Unnecessary. The throttle bodies do not collect any dirt or grime or oil or grease or anything else on our cars.

Ya mine were spotless when I had my intake manifold apart, what needs cleaned is the intake manifold that accumulates oil inside, but nothing at all seems to get on the TB's.

And your PCV if original which will be letting all kinds of oil past by that age.
