Default AIR/OIL SEPARATOR / Throttle body
After installing the oil separator does anyone recommend having throttle body cleaned?

When I installed mine I didn't have mine cleaned?? But maybe Rafi can chime in and add something, don't know if it's necessary or not?

I used some parts cleaner on mine. Put it on a rag and cleaned out. Didnt get behind the butterfly though. Mine was pretty clean.
