Cleaning the throttle body 850

I didn't have any special cleaning products this weekend and ended up using TurtleWax brand "bug and tar" remover that claims to remove old and burned oil deposits. Worked Great! Just used a shop rag and the solution, and it came off instantly. Of course, I was careful to remove all traces of the stuff, as I have no idea how it affects aluminum or other engine parts long term, but it helped to reduce the "elbow grease".
