Your msg is the first Ive seen about harming the UIM if I just spray the TB cleaner in without removal - thats a good piece of info I havent seen on any other site.

    Its also noted above that if I disconnect any of the electrical connectors that I need to do a TB relearn - removing the TB means disconnecting everything?

    There are alot of threads on this subject but I havent really found a good DIY writeup w/pics for the L26 motor for newbies.

    Looking at it from above as an amateur it looks like I could screw something up badly
    Here you go.

    Excellent - thanks! I dont have any Miller High Life, hopefully I can switch parts for that step and still be successful

    Basically cleaning the MAF, TB, and replacing the sparks/plugs and Ive completed the 'tune up' steps?
