how can i clean my throttle body

[CMF_rowstar]

just got a second hand one as i'm tired of resoldering my original one every few months.

so with this one its dirty as and i want to clean it up a bit but i should be worried about damaging the air flow sensor inside?

i have some carby cleaner and i'm just getting all the black crap off the butterfly for now. can i clean the AFM with a cotton bud? what to use though...solvent? just want to make sure its all A1 before installing...

bloody better be in working order lol!

I recommend DON'T TOUCH IT... its just a bit of wire and quite fragile

ok cool, will stick to just a carby clean and skip the AFM clean then...
