• Q: How to clean the throttle body safely and effectively on 2006 Buick Rendezvous?

  A: Begin the throttle body cleaning work by turning off ignition to avoid throttle blade movement during cleaning that could result in personal injury. The throttle body bore should not receive any tools to prevent harming the throttle valve plate or exposing components to Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK)-based solvents. Start by taking out the air cleaner outlet duct before examining the throttle body bore and throttle valve plate for deposits with full throttle valve opening visibility. Cautions against opening the throttle blade using the ON position key because this action might cause a diagnostic trouble code (DTC) to appear. Wipe down the throttle body bore and throttle valve plate with an unsoiled shop towel through GM Top Engine Cleaner (P/N 1052626 or Canadian P/N 993026) or AC-Delco Carburetor Tune-up Conditioner (P/N X66-P) or equivalent cleaning solution. Install back the air cleaner outlet duct as the final stage of repair.
