Hi All,

I removed the intake manifold to replace a broken water line. I'm taking the opportunity to replace the water temp sensor, temp switch, and PCV valve since they are easy to get to at this time.

Can anybody recommend anything else that I should replace/check/inspect while the intake manifold is off? Thanks.

Clean throttle body and intake manifold if dirty.

Stupid question what is the best way to clean those parts?

Water and a clean rag/tooth bush works best. When I cleaned my motor in previous cars I used Dawn dish soap. It kills grease and stuff and will not ruin sensors etc. Just be careful when cleaning.

This is a pic from a Mazda TB, but this is what you might see if you have build up:
