Schedule for Throttle body cleaning
Hey I was just wondering how often you need to clean the throttle units on our C5's. Also, what does GM reccomend using to clean it with? Some electronic throttle units are sensitive to what you use. (volvos)

Once a year unless you have an oil charged air cleaner.. then depending on the amount of oil, more frequent cleaning would be required.

Clean the throttle body? The only time I could ever see myself going through the hassle of this is if I had to take the throttle body off for some other reason. Please tell me there's another reason for doing this.
