  • throttle body help!!

    Ok i bought some TB cleaner from AZ and took off my throtttle body. i sanded it down and made it all smooth (maf screen is still there) and sprayed the heck outta it with the cleaner. When i put it back on the car i am getting REALLY rough idle and the SES was blinking. also tons of white smoke coming out of the back. did i do something wrong.. anyone else had this problem and the SES went off?
    thanks

    i hope you didn't spray the heck out of the MAF sensor element with the cleaner.... naughty naughty boy...

    try resetting pcm and see what happens... blinking SES means you're dumping WAY too much HC into your cat.
    1: tell me (honestly) you didn't spray cleaner on the MAF element
    2: reset pcm and see what happens

        You fried your MAF sensor.

              spraying MAF element with TB cleaner will ruin the element...
              glad you got out okay on this one...
              more the wiser next time ;)
