Hi all,

This weekend I took my throttle body off and cleaned it out.There was alot

of crud in there!!I also took my tubes before and after the AMM and cleaned

them out,removed my hot air pipe,and adjusted the throttle plate per George

Swift's procedure he gave me and my daily driver has never started and ran so well since I first found her in the salvage yard heading for the crusher!!!!

If you're having trouble with your LH type system with stalling and searching

idle I highly recommend cleaning your throttle body,It took me all of 30 mins

and I'm not a mechanic....but I take care of my own cars........

Thanks George!!!!
