Throttle body spring replacement?
Throttle body spring replacement?
Has anyone tried throttle body spring replacement on 99 TL? My throttle cable doesn't seem to return fully once car runs for few miles. I have cleaned throttle body and IACV both. Replaced IACV as well with no effect. Looks like the spring/pulley connected to the the cable coming from the left side of the bay (not the one connected to accelerator) has difficulty returning back. Works for a while after spraying with soft degreaser and silicone lobes only to get problematic again on the road.
Is there a part no for springs. I could find the whole TB assy only available for replacement and I wasn't sure if anyone else had a better DIY fix for this. Also, what is a good lube to apply to this spring harness.
DO I need to do anything on the CC box where the cable is coming from?
TIA.
