i doubt the HUGE tb is so full of carbon it would give you issues and if you go the seafoam route BE CAREFUL very very CAREFUL - hydrolock is a bitch

my TB could prolly use a good cleaning... as I think the person before me had an aftermarket intake on. When I bought the car the intake box had tons of those helicopter things that fall from trees. also had all the hoses IN the air filter (another reason I dont like Manchester Honda...)

Oh sense we got on the TB.... I also been having problems starting the car.. It bogs badly when starting like it tries to stall but it does not.

Sounds like you need a pro to look at that TB, it may not even be installed correctly
