Cleaning the throttle valve assembly on a turbo at 66K. Necessary? 850

posted by  someone claiming to be Dick on  Fri May 20 04:58 CST 2005 [RELATED]

I know turbos don't have a PCV valve on them, and I've had my problems with clogged ones on my non-turbo 240, but is there any reason on a light/high pressure/R 850 turbo to tear off the throttle valve assembly and use to some carburetor cleaner to swab out the throat, or is this totally unnecessary? Getting to that throttle valve assembly is not the easy job that it is on a 240. Dick
