do you have a new gasket? are you sure about what you are doing –
do not hit anything with a hammer – it could get expensive – those castings crack if you hit them wrong.
BTW, if it’s a Fly-By-Wire body, please try not to wreck the position sensors by filling them up with whatever cleaning fluid you are going to use……….
Also, if it is, and you clean a lot of gunk out, you might need to do a battery disconnect(or an OBD reset with a scan tool) to clear the current throttle idle adaption values from the engine ecu
took for test drive and its a little better, but the accelerator is still heavy and not much modulation, it’s either the throttle body spring has been changed as it seems stiff or the inner cable is shot. But i lubed the cable and disconnected it it was smooth.
cheers all
