i just cleaned the throttle body on my 95SC300, with the spray cleaner and right after i put the stock intake tubing on, started the car, first it was idling at around 2200, well it came down alot but it stilll idles between 1200 - 1500, any help would be appreciated

thanks

 

Did you take off the TB and clean it with a rag and TB cleaner, if so you might have plugged one of the holes that the vacuum lines run into. Some of the holes are very small.

I cleaned the my TB and plugged up the holes and the my car ran like cr**.

Try spraying the TB cleaner into the hard lines the vacuum lines that run into the TB and make sure they are clear.

I hope this helps

 

thanks for your reply bro, but i didnt take the TB off, i left it on there , i just took the intake tubing off the throttle body and sprayed throttle body with the sprayer, it was real dirty, i hope i didnt mess up anything up, but i will check the vaccum hoses up see what's going on

 

Anyone with any suggestions or have gone through the same problem, your input would be very helpful

 

You did make sure to plug the airflow sensor back in when you put the piping back on didnt you? I forgot to and my car did the same thing.

 

yea the air flow sensor wire is plugged in proper, i never had to take the wiring out , but anyways i'll see for couple more days if it adjusts by itself, if not i am going to take the whole throttle body out and clean it out real good and see where it goes from there, but the car feels alot more responsive now

 

Try disconnecting the battery to reset the ECU....

 

thanks bro, i'll try that i am stuck at work till 7 so right after i get off work i'll try that route, hopefully that will help

 

i was in the same situation as you when i cleaned my TB. when i was done cleaning it i started it up and the idle was high so i let it warm up and the idle was still high, i tried resetting the ecu, that didnt help me, so since i didnt know what to do i just left it like that and now my idle went back to normal.
