FAQ for Throttle Body Repair
Q: How to clean the throttle body?
A:
You will need to remove the air intake duct, inspect the throttle body bore and the throttle valve plate for deposits, then clean the throttle body bore and the throttle valve plate using a clean shop towel with GM top engine cleaner, GM P/N 1052626 (Canadian P/N 993026) or AC-Delco Carburetor Tune-Up Conditioner, P/N X66-P, or an equivalent product. Finally, you can install the air intake duct.

Q: What should I know about the throttle learn?
A:
The engine control module (ECM) learns the idle position of the throttle plate to ensure the correct idle. Anytime the throttle body is cleaned or replaced, the ECM must learn the new throttle position. The idle may be unstable or a DTC may be set if the throttle position is not learned.

Q: How to remove the manifold absolute pressure sensor?
A:
You will need to disconnect the manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor electrical connector, remove the MAP Sensor retaining bolt and bracket, and next remove the MAP sensor and the MAP sensor port seal if it is still retained in the intake manifold.
Q: How to remove the Lower Intake Manifold?

You will need to drain the cooling system and remove the upper Intake Manifold, then remove the heater inlet pipe, disconnect the radiator inlet hose from the thermostat housing, remove the fuel rail assembly and the lower intake manifold bolts, then remove the lower intake manifold from the engine. If replacing the lower intake manifold, you should remove the thermostat and housing. Then you can remove the rocker arms and push rods, and the lower intake manifold gaskets.
Q: How to install the Air Cleaner Element?
A:
You may need to install the air cleaner element into the lower housing, install the air cleaner assembly lid by first engaging the hinge then lower the cover into the closed position, fasten the clamps on the side of the air cleaner assembly, connect the MAF sensor electrical connector and install the air cleaner intake duct.
