Probably better to squirt in there while the engine isn't running and the wires aren't hot, right?

If you removed the MAF it will run like s**t. There are a number of reasons why it might run like s**t....you'll need to supply a lot more information.

Yeah, I cleaned mine by reming the electronics from the body. I was reading that both WD40 and cotton buds are both big no-no's for cleaning it though, hence buying the specialised electronic contact cleaner. It's a whopping $10 from Jaycar :)


How do you remove the electronics from the TB? I tried last night and theres two screws holding it together. One is a Torx screw but the other doesn't seem to have head on it. I tried popping it off but didn't seem to work. Such a simple question but had me stumped for 20 minutes before i gave up.

BTW sorry about the thread mine. Was the most relevant when i used the search function.


The head will have a grey hard powdery cap on it, just scrape it off to reveal the torx head.
