Just done my throtle body & breathers.....
« on: 07 January 2017, 14:52:36 »

when I took the throttle body off the manifold I noticed that there was quite a bit if moisture at the bottom when looking down into the opening - it didn't smell like petrol so presume it's coolant?  Is this normal or am I looking at another problem?

It will be oil. I get the same, when I clean out the TB I spray carb cleaner into the manifold then soak it up with blueroll with my 4 prong reachy thing
