How to clean a throttle body and Idle air control valve (iac)
*** PLEASE READ ***
In this video demonstration, I show how to get to, remove, clean, and replace the throttle body and idle air control motor (aka IAC) on a 4.2l ford motor. This procedure is the same for any fuel injected vehicle.
* * * Check out my website krkvideos.com * * *
The vans require removal of alot more stuff just to access the throttle body.
A dirty IAC can cause a rough idle. A dirty throttle body can harm performance and cause rough engine operation.
When the throttle body or iac is removed a new gasket must be used to properly seal the connection to the intake.
GM idle air motors are generally mounted on the throttle body and can be cleaned without removal from the throttle body. This means one less gasket and a lesser chance of creating a vacuum leak.
The ford throttle body had a note on it that said it was not to be cleaned because the coating on the throttle blade might be damaged. Thats fine for a new car but that has to be disregarded when working on something that has some miles on it.

MAF - Mass Air Flow sensor - Monitors the amount of air the engine is intaking.
IAT - Intake Air Temperature - Measures the temperature of the air the engine is intaking.
IAC - Idle air control - Controls the amount of air the engine is intaking while it is idling.
Throttle body - Responsible for regulating flow of air into the engine as you press the gas pedal.
TPS - Throttle position sensor - Tells the computer how far you are opening the blade in the throttle body so it can add more fuel to compensate the added air.

How to change o2 sensor. Bank 1 Sensor 1 on a 2003 chevy sliverado
This will show you how easy it is to change out your o2 sensors in your vehicles. Just go to Autozone. They can run a free computer dignostics check. they will tell you what the problem is. Buy the part from them and you are good to go. You will need a special oxygen sensor socket. You can buy it at autozone. Or at Harbor freights (cheaper). (in my case the socket just would not work. i had to use a old fashion wrench) Turn the vehicle on for about 5 minutes. Let the Exhaust get nice and hot. Spray some wd-40 on the oxygen sensor fitting. let it set for a minute or so and start working it loose. Repeat the process for stubborn oxygen sensors. once removed. attach the wires. disconnect the battery for about 5 to 10 minutes. this should void your check engine light. Oxygen sensors are important. they help with your gas mileage. The goal of the sensor is to help the engine run as efficiently as possible and also to produce as few emissions as possible. When the oxygen sensor fails, the computer can no longer sense the air/fuel ratio, so it ends up guessing. Your car performs poorly and uses more fuel than it needs to.
Quick Tip-Throttle Cleaning - EricTheCarGuy
This one goes out to BowlingBallOut who posted a question about a sticky throttle on his Saturn. It was a great question so I decided to make this video in response to it. There are many different configurations of throttle assemblies but for the most part if you have a throttle that is sticking you might be able to fix it using the procedures in this video. I am aware you may not able to purchase spray throttle cleaner in some states now but I'm sure they have some alternative available at your local parts store.

Cleaning A Mass Air Flow Sensor To Stop Hesitation
Scotty Kilmer, mechanic for the last 44 years, shows how you can clean your vehicle's MAF sensor to stop hesitation when you accelerate. They often get dirty and need cleaning, just like an old carburetor did. Visit the Scottykilmer Channel on Youtube for answers to all your car questions.
How to replace an O2 Sensor and save money.
I show you how to replace your O2 Sensor. This is being performed on a 1997 Chevy Tahoe. Automotive oxygen sensors, colloquially known as O2 sensors, make modern electronic fuel injection and emission control possible. They determine if the air fuel ratio exiting a gas-combustion engine is rich (with unburnt fuel vapor) or lean (with excess oxygen).
SeaFoaming my Silverado
after taking apart my sticking throttle body to clean it I noticed how dirty my intake was. Thought I would run some seafoam in there to see if it would clean it up a bit. Plus you just gota love the smoke!
Before and After: Cleaning your MAF Sensor.
took advice from online forums and tried cleaning my MAF to solve my performance issues, and it payed off.
the song is the pot by tool in the beginning
GMC / SILVERADO pickup quick fuel pump fix.
After dropping the tank twice to replace my fuel pump (which is a bitch of a job) , I tried this. Removing the bed can be even worse. After thinking about it, I should have used air or electric sheet metal nippers to cut the hatch.
