Default 2006 IS350 Throttle Body Cleaning Part 2

Cleaned the Throttle Body this morning. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, actually kind of clean after 94k miles. I sprayed some TB Cleaner on the screen to the Intake and gave a few shots of Sea Foam into the Intake also. Sprayed it down and let it sit for a little and then used soem more TB Cleaner and a tooth brush and just gently scrubbed. Here are some photo's and this was the previous thread from a couple of days ago.

For those reading this, BE CAREFUL when turning the butterfly plate within the TB. The plate is attached to an electric motor; and unlike older vehicles with a physical cable connecting the throttle to the gas pedal, the motor is electrical and issues can arise if moving the plate around at will.
