abunda_amazon_reviews This cleaner works great! It took me about 45 minutes from start to finish. I recently had my oil changed at the dealership, and they were going to charge me $80 for a Throttle Body Service. My car is a 2006 Toyota Corolla, so I was able to find DIY videos on how to clean it myself. The work looked pretty simple and I enjoy saving money! Spent only $8.60 on this spray can of CRC Throttle Body & Air Intake Cleaner. After testing the engine and driving for 10 minutes after cleaning, my car felt like it had a smoother push when I press on the gas pedal. Now I realize how much difference it makes to keep up with the maintenance! I included photos and a video for those who want to save money. Women can do this too!!!;;Reviewed in the United States on January 29, 2018;;5.0 out of 5 stars;;Works very well!;;Puffin;;;My car dealer's service department wanted $299 to clean the throttle body on my wife's 2013 Nissan Maxima. Really??? After watching a Youtube video on how to access, remove, and clean the throttle body, I purchased a can of throttle body cleaner, grabbed a couple of shop cloths, and had the job done in just over an hour. No special tools required. This product does a great job loosening the carbon buildup. The car had 115k miles before I serviced the throttle body. After cleaning, all metal parts were bright and shiny. Sure helped improve the performance.;;Reviewed in the United States on September 28, 2019;;5.0 out of 5 stars;;Saved Me A Ton Of Money;;Dusty Traveler;;;Great stuff! Cleaned my trucks' throttle-body, IAC, and linkage on my 4.6L V8 Ford very well. One word of caution though: be certain to use in a well-ventilated area preferably with a mask to cover your nose and throat area. I learned the hard way and never want to do that again! I finished the job with a mask but felt the negative effects for 3 days following. I guess it wouldn't work so well if it weren't so caustic. PS: after the cleanup, my truck ran like a scalded dog!;;Reviewed in the United States on November 21, 2017;;5.0 out of 5 stars;;Great Stuff just don't inhale!;;callum;;;CRC products are outstanding for so many applications. A quality company that makes products that are specific to an application and they perform extremely well. This Throttle Body and Air Intake cleaner increased my gas mileage 2 miles per gallon and continues to climb with every tankful. Gunk builds up in the throttle body from fuel and needs cleaned periodically. This will take care of the build up. My increase Gas mileage is proof it is working. Clean the fuel system and use a good grade fuel tank/fuel system cleaner like Gumout and your mileage will improve. Be sure to only use Mass air flow sensor cleaner on the sensor. CRC make this product as well.;;Reviewed in the United States on October 31, 2018;;5.0 out of 5 stars;;CRC Products are the Best for so many applications Would buy again.;;GACDVP;;;Google the MSDS for this and you'll see it is about 80% acetone and some accelerant to blow it out of the can. Yes it does a great job and cleaning up grease and grime and grit, especially the stuff accumulate in and around your TB. Acetone is a highly effective product and is used in an extremely broad range of industrial applications, specifically because it works well and is cheap. Could you use acetone in a spray bottle or a pump bottle the same way? Yup. Is bulk acetone cheaper? Yup. Are there other products like the WD40 TB cleaner that are much bigger yet cheaper and have the same ingredients? Yup. So, overall, it works, it just is more expensive than other brands and a lot more expensive that an ad hoc home made version.;;Reviewed in the United States on March 2, 2020;;4.0 out of 5 stars;;Nail Polish Remover (acetone) In a Can;;Michael E.;;;Wear some kind of eye and mouth masks protections.Before you do this because the chemical smells it pretty strong.The chemistry of the product helped to de solved all the black build up of the gasoline carbons and so you can cleans the gasoline carbon easily off of the Air intake throttle body inside hole and the eceleration plate are greats.Solved my Toyota Camry car problems the car engine first ignition turns on than the engine idleling and just dies right away problems.;;Reviewed in the United States on October 23, 2018;;5.0 out of 5 stars;;Wearing some kind of mouth and eye protection mask before using the product;;Chi N. Chu;;;Simple way to increase fuel mileage and performance without damaging sensitive intake components. It dissolved the muck very well. I followed the instructions on the can and the grime melted away. My car had difficulty starting for about ten seconds but quickly started relearning the new position of the throttle body. Guess it was pretty dirty to begin with.;;Reviewed in the United States on August 15, 2019;;5.0 out of 5 stars;;performance improvement for cheap;;Plumpkin;;;This really has helped my very low idle to come back to normal. I sprayed the throttle body liberally with this spray after taking off the everything in front of it. I also put an absorbent ragon the bottom to catch any that pours out. after this, I put everything back and started the truck. It took a little to start it, but after it did, the idle didn't seem better until after running the truck for a couple days. Good product but keep away from plastic.;;Reviewed in the United States on June 28, 2020;;5.0 out of 5 stars;;This really has helped my very low idle to come back to normal;;Klingler LLC
