Thumbs up Throttle body cleaner

I tried some of this spray I got from the store and it works pretty well. Just soak a section of cloth and wipe inside to get all the black stuff off. I even sprayed a little bit on the two hinges of the butterfly valve. Just be sure to wipe the excess before it drips down into the intake mani.

Differences noticed: My rough idle where the car would shake back and forth is alot better I think. Wouldn't hurt to give it a good cleaning, and it's easy to do. You just have to remove the intake to reach it. Then there's a black lever behind the TB that you can open and close the valve with.
