Hi there, I have a question regarding removing the throttle body, when you put it back do u need to do an idle relearn? other than that super informative video

@McGo101 2 жыл бұрын

I didn't as I tried bot to disturb the throttle body plates too much. Just quick clean and reinstall. No issues for me. Wouldn't hurt to do it by the manual tho

@nicholaswalrod1214 3 жыл бұрын

Hey i like your video. Did you use torque tools for any of the bolts or spark plugs. I do not have any torque wrenches and was wondering if I could still just do it by hand.

@McGo101 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks man. Hope it helped. I didn't use any torque wrenches myself. Tight but not overtight like usual and you shouldn't have any issues.

Hey! helpful video im gonna do it soon following your steps! Just curious, did you unplug your battery and do you need to unplug it?

@McGo101 3 жыл бұрын

Hey! i did not pull my battery terminal off but it wouldn't hurt to consult a shop manual quick just to be sure of the proper method. I have not looked at the manual but i am willing to bet it says to remove the negative terminal before completing the work. the reason i recommend checking the manual first is i did just have a startup and stall issue last week. when i looked it up it recommended cleaning the throttle bodies and the MAF sensors and doing the relearn procedure on the TB's. - So i would recommend disconnecting the battery, changing the plugs then cleaning the TB's and MAF sensors and doing the relearn procedure quick. just to avoid any issues down the road. Best of luck! keep us posted!

@Kai-gotglow 8 ай бұрын

Yes you should don’t listen to him. The moment you need to change spark plugs you might as well do preventive maintenance on the valve cover gaskets. These crack and get hard over time. That way you don’t have to worry about a oil leak in the future. Not only that but there’s also the spark plug gaskets on the cover and if it goes bad then oil will leak on your ignition coils and spark plugs which can mess with your ignition process and cause misfiring. Better to be safe than sorry.

@McGo101 3 жыл бұрын

hey man, coil packs should only reach their respective cylinders with the wiring to the coils IIRC. If she wont start you may have to do the relearn procedures on the throttle bodies. best of luck!
