Yeah mine asked $80 to do it. Thanks to this write up It cost me $5 or so for the spray and a few minutes.

Just took your advice and was amazed how much gunk was on there with only 32k miles on jeep. Thanks for the write up

Finally got around to doing this today. Jeep had 25K on it and was actually fairly clean... Maybe it was the K&N drop in filter I've been using? Either way I cleaned the little bit of crud off and hooked it all back up and it started without a stutter like it usually does. Super easy.

Are your tb's really dirty? I read about people doing this when I had a TJ so I figured what the hell? Took it apart at 95k miles and it was almost spotless except a light film on the sides that I doubt effected anything.

mine had a bunch of black residue along the inner tube and a slight amount on the back that was more brownish that black. I'm not really sure but all I know is the Jeep started up without it's usual stutter which is good enough for me.

Ok so I finally did this today. WOW!!! The rough idle is completely gone as is the sluggishness. No codes either. I did disconnect both sides of the battery, but could not get the throttle body control harness disconnected. But no issues.
And I really didnt even think it was that dirty, at least as compared to the Ops pics, but the result was incredible.

I did mine yesterday. It took all of 15 minutes to do. I have an 09 with 47K on it. It was pretty dirty with a lot of built up stuff on the inside. The intake is a little oily as well. I might need to change the PCV valve for good measure.

Did mine tonight at 29k and it was pretty dirty. I have a k&n CAI but didn't seem make the throttle body any dirtier than my brothers stock 07 with 20k.
