throttle body clean: thanks!
A long and productive weekend (that ended tonight!):
- throttle body cleaned
- thermostat replaced
- IAC and TPS adjusted to factory manual settings
No leaks, temps correct, and the engine purrs at idle. All this at 122,000 miles. Many thanks to all who post tech tips and maintain these procedures on your websites...I couldn't do any of this without the forum!

Yup. Really mellows out the base idle, picks up engine response and fuel economy, too.
