How often should Peugeot 308 throttle be cleaned?

Peugeot 308 throttle is cleaned every 20,000-30,000 kilometers. If it is not very dirty, you can clean the throttle directly with cleaning agent without disassembling the throttle. But if the throttle is removed, it will be cleaner. The specific cleaning steps are as follows:

1. First find the position of the throttle and connect it directly to the air filter behind the air inlet;

2. First remove the connecting hose between the throttle valve and the air cleaner, and then remove the air cleaner assembly;

3. Then remove the throttle cable, unscrew the fixing bolt and remove the throttle;

4. Use special cleaning agent or carburetor cleaning agent, spray some cleaning agent on the throttle, wait for the organic solvent to dissolve the carbon deposit, and dry it for 1-2 minutes.

In addition, there is a cleaning method without removing the throttle. When the engine is running, the cleaning agent is directly injected into the throttle. The practice of most 4S shops and maintenance points is to blow the throttle and spray cleaning agent into the throttle. At this time, the car will emit white smoke because the cleaned stains are strongly ignited by the suction cylinder and then discharged. This cleaning method is relatively more harmful to the car, so it is better to disassemble and clean it, which is healthier for the car.
