I've got a fair idea but need a guide before I start pulling things apart. Can someone with a day off today make one?

unclewal Donating Members 583 Member For: 14y 6m 26d Posted 20/06/11 04:50 AM Share Posted 20/06/11 04:50 AM get a pair of sidecutters and clip the top off that hose clamp (where the head is), under that is the actual screw head of the clamp and you can use a screw driver to remove it Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/75358-fg-throttle-body-cleaning/#findComment-1115791 Share on other sites More sharing options...
