I did it, and OMG!!11....OMFG
I cleaned my knock sensor with one part seafoam and two parts throttle body cleaner. Don't worry though I tightend the throttle body cable afterwards. I did get some odd sounds afterwards but it might be my stock 150K miles struts and the sprint springs with cut 2 coils that rides like stock

...But either way...OMG!!!!

I don't know about any tooth brushes, but who ever posted the part # for these spark plugs was waayyyy off. They look nothing like the ones I removed. Don't worry, a little throttle body cleaner will take care of it

A little seafoam in the brake lines made my brakes so much more responsive...I can stop on a dime now with bald tires! I also used some TB cleaner when my AC started smelling...a few shots of that rather than coolant and I was set!

Well duh...that's why we all do it at least once a week. Only n00b5 fail to do so. It's better than nawzzzz because it's cheap and actually improves compression.

Sweet Dawg!!!! I did the same thing plus I cleaned my throttle body and gained like 20hp. I know it cause I can feel it. I'll be installing my 30 ground wires tommorrow. My friend gained 25hp by just regrounding everything on his G35. Remember, don't let the others hate on your mods, Bro

For the WTFer's, I think Mike's point that things like Sea Foam, throttle body cleaning, PCV valve replacement, knock sensor replacements, etc have overrun the Org with snake oil like promises of extra power and much better driveability. When someone has a drivability problem, usually some clueless Org member will suggest one of the many snake oil repairs. A lot of money is wasted on these useless repairs and suggestions.
