Breather Cleaning?
« on: 08 September 2009, 15:28:34 »
Hi,
i have tried to clean my breathers as the guide said but i cannot get the throttle bodies off the plenum.
 
Is it possible to clean it in situ, with the engine running? or has it got to be taken apart?

sorry forgot too mention i am only cleaning the plastic bit on top.

Many thanks

Anthony

Have you taken the top cover off and taken out the torx bolt?
you can use an 8mm nut to get the 4 torx bolts off the front of the pleunum, if you cant get to them loosen the pleunum and lift it, they are not very tight.
