So, you use this cleaner. Some people make the mistake of using Brake cleaner, but many throttle bodies have special coatings on the steel and will be ruined by certain solvents. Like, don't make the mistake of using the wonderful solvent that is diesel fuel to clean this. Get a brass brush and throttle body cleaner.
This is a non-issue for cars probably less than 10 years old though. This is for people that push their cars past 150,000+ miles and looking to really clean them up. So, it does still matter with fuel-injection vehicles, but if you are 50k miles and a garage is asking you to do this, they are just ripping you off lol. This makes almost no difference unless you got a couple mm of caking on carbon affecting the flow where you might even need to reprogram your idle.
