About LinkBacksHey everyone. I was installing my intake and decided to take a look at the throttle body while I had the hose off and this is what I found. That seems like excessive buildup to me. Any idea to the reasoning behind this? Could a catch can from BT help with this? This car is used and I picked it up with 42K on it. Thanks everyone.

looks normal for the backside of the throttle plate with your kind of mileage. easily cleaned with a rag soaked in brake clean.

Oh ok. I did clean her up, just kind of freaked me out. Also, is it possible to notice any differences in mileage or pep? I could have swore that she seemed to respond a bit better.

yuck, I have almost 60K on mine and it doesn't look like that......
and yes the BT catch can will help...I know you believe you understand what you think I said, but I am not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant. ~Robert McCloskey

mine is still perfectly clean behind the throttle blade. it is hard to get any build up with the throttle blade standing on edge.

Mine looked like that after less than 30K miles. I will be adding a catch-can very soon, as well.
I posted about it here.Last edited by JonzMgnm; 11-25-2007 at 07:04 PM.
