    First time i cleaned it the throttle body was still attached... im sure i didnt hit alot of spots and maybe even made some areas a little worse... Its gonna get a good scrubbing tonight when i actually take that bad boy off.

    Thats what everyone keeps saying about the screen.. Its an added part that most cars dont have in place that cuts down on air flow... i dont know, in my opinion its better to have it out. besides, i kind of mangled it when i took it out so i would have to buy a new one.. If cleaning it doesnt work i guess thats what ill try next.

    Put the screen in.. Don't listen to TL. His experience is the 1 in a 100. Most start running lean, have idling issues and realize.. the screen has a purpose.

    Put it back in..then smack yourself for not mentioning that in your idling threads.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.
