Can anyone confirm the torque ftlbs for putting the throttle body back on? The GM online service manual says 89 ft lbs. Just want to make sure. Could I effectively clean the throttle body without removing it with a N/A? Also I noticed when I changed the air filter awhile ago the air duct was stubborn removing and putting back. Could I apply some soapy water to make sliding the duct back on easier or what would you typically do?

Thanks!

take it off, to be honest i didn't know there was a torque spec on the TB so i just put mine on until it got hard to turn haha, but its like a billion times easier to clean with it off, cause you can get both sides and a lil bit in your intake

as far as the ducking goes, just loosen it as much as you can, shouldn't be hard to slid back on if you undo it a bit more
(if you don't have a HAI/CAI like most, i could take off the ducting between the TB and the air box, would work out a lot better for you i would imagine)

Opps... 89 lb in not 89 lb ft. So actually that's 7.4 lb ft, big difference haha! Glad I doubled checked. I thought 89 lb ft was a bit high :shock: haha. Well I'm going to do this soon. Curious how dirty it will look with 140,000 miles.
Thanks!
