Fuel is quite expensive now.. For all car owners you need to tune up your car for optimum performance.

This maintenance will help reduce the fuel consumption of your car a bit. Before this ensure your plugs are top notch. I use denso iridium plugs.

To reduce fuel consumption a bit, you need to clean the throttle body of your car engine with a carb choke cleaner. Please watch the video carefully. You can do it yourself if you are good with tools.

Do NOT spray the choke cleaner inside the throttle body. I repeat, do NOT!! Tell your mechanic the same too.

Please ensure your engine is off before you do this. Spray the choke cleaner on a toothbrush, Open the butterfly as well, use the brush to clean behind the butterfly in the throttle body. Then use the dry part of a cloth to carefully clean and wipe dry until all dirt disappears .

After this, you will notice that your car's acceleration will be better and smoother. Your car engine's operating temperature will be slightly lowered.

In addition, clean your air filter anytime you do engine oil drain or as you seem fit.

May God help us all.

Enjoy your ride.
