Throttle Body (Throttle Valve Area) Inspection
Disconnect the air intake hose from the throttle body and check the throttle valve surface (for carbon deposits), by rotating the valve.

Throttle Body (Throttle Valve Area) Cleaning

2. Remove the air intake hose from the throttle body.
3. Spray cleaning solvent into the valve through the throttle body intake port and leave it for about 5 minutes.
