Is it bad to clean my AFM with throttle body cleaner?

 

Tell you what. Go to your TV set and open it. Now spray throttle body cleaner on the circuit board and write back on how things turned out.

Almost just kidding. You could get a rag and wet it with the cleaner and wipe the internal METAL passages and it shouldn't hurt anything. I'm trying to say just don't get it dripping wet were some of it might get down into/onto the internal circuit board. Even then it'd probably still work......maybe.

 

Well I think I solved my problem! When I first installed the new injectors and vacuum hoses I was cleaning up around the motor. So i thought hey, i'll clean the afm so I sprayed it like hell. Well when ever i was having the problem of the car reving slow and felling like it was going to die i though it was a vacuum leak. So i checked all my lined and wires. And once more i sprayed the throttle body and the afm. And I put everything back together. And now it cranks but no start!!!

 

Also when it was running after i installed everything the first time it sounded like the afm was hissing, like i was pressing on the pedal.

 

Need an s4 AFM? I got one I don't need, let me know.
