rpm is fluctuating(revs up) even gas pedal is steady. this started when i put a drop-in air filter. i placed the stock filter back but problem is still there. asked the dealer and they said they will need to clean the throttle body for 5 hours. so i just thought maybe someone diy-ed it already.
I have never had this problem or read of this having happened to anyone on this forum....It is very strange that the problem didn't exist prior to the filter change.... Yo can see the break down of parts for he throttle body at majestic auto parts..... It looks pretty simple, not many parts so it should be easy...... I can't understand why it it takes five hours to clean unless they soak it.
From the little info we have, it sounds like a vacuum leak to me . . . cleaning the throttle body would do nothing. And like others have said, unless there's something wrong with your PCV valve (or maybe the EGR system), there's almost no way for a throttle to get dirty to begin with.
yeah check your sensor, leaks, or wiring for the sensor first. But my sister's RSX (Integra) had the same problem and after removing the sensor inside the throttle body and cleaning it with those aerosol sprays for cleaning the intake parts, it works like a champ now hope that helps
Hi guys just to give you an update. I did what accordguyintake's sister did to her integra. I used a carbon cleaner aerosol spray. The problem is gone now! Thanksss!
