Video tutorial

In this video tutorial, you can see how to clean the throttle body of the Ford Fiesta. The first thing to do is lift the bonnet and secure it; next, loosen the screws of the clamps that hold the throttle body to the air filter.

Place a piece of paper over the intake collar to prevent anything from falling inside. Before refitting the throttle body, it's a good idea to clean the inside of the intake manifold to remove any oil residue.

For reassembly, there is a small socket on the manifold that must be recessed (to avoid mistakes, take a photo when disassembling). Once fitted, reconnect the connector.

Take it for a test drive.
