How to clean the throttle body safely and effectively on 2006 Chevrolet Cobalt?

First turn your ignition off because unintended throttle blade movement could result in personal injury. Using tools within the throttle body bore will damage the throttle valve plate so avoid inserting them at all costs. Also skip solvents with Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK) since they affect fuel system components. Start cleaning operations by removing the air cleaner outlet duct before inspecting the throttle body bore and throttle valve plate for accumulation while maintaining full throttle valve opening for total visibility. Using the ignition key with ON position to keep the throttle blade propped open will potentially activate a diagnostic trouble code (DTC). Finish the cleaning operation by using Top Engine Cleaner (Saturn P/N 21007129) or equivalent product to clean the throttle body bore and throttle valve plate with a new shop towel.
