Dirty throttle bodies

[number9t]

Has anyone taken their bodies off after they have a few miles on them? I have 775 miles on mine and I’m putting a mtntk turbo on it. The inside of the throttle bodies are coated in what looks like clutch dust.

Yep it’s belt dust.

Pretty normal.

Can’t imagine that’s doing my top end any favors

Nope.

Good clutching helps avoid that.

Seal airbox gaps.
