    I'm not sure cleaning your Throttle Position Sensor would have any advantage. I'm not sure if a TPS even needs to be cleaned.......

        I would personally go with the OEM replacements. (not unless you're turbo)

        while you're out there, you might as well adjust your air/fuel ratio by smell... and your tire pressure by ride height

          well it depends on if you have an auto or manual, if you have a manual it probally really wouldn't matter, because the manual tps only shows either closed throttle or full throttle, while the auto one shows the computer the actual postion of the throttle.

            Yeah but something was a little better now that all that gunk and crap was cleaned. the air could probably pass more easily with all that crap cleaned. I dont know I was bored needed something to do.

              Are you referring to the throttle body?

                    No I'm not surprised at all, just the topic was cleaning the TPS.
