just finish cleaning my throttle body

i have been having some bad gas mileage and other problems so i decided instead of spend $50 to clean it why not just check the faq and see how its done...then i went to the store bought a cleaner for that for $4 then went to work and damm that think was dirty as hell...and now it looks brand new and i hope gas mileage will change and alot more..i also was checking my plugs and injectors i dont kno when they are bad but around them look pretty dirty so am gonna try some cleaner in the gas and see if any change.

Cool, I need to clean mine again. I cleaned it in Dec of last year, but I didn't take the throttle body completely apart to clean it. I really did a rush job, because I was freezing my nads off.
