Default Cleaning MAF and throttle body?

I tried searching on here and google and couldn't really find any detailed info with pics on how to clean the MAF and throttle body for a 99 GS300. I want to attempt it myself but am a complete noob and never done this before so if anyone can send me the right link or pics or tell me how I will greatly appreciate it. OR if your in NY and want to do it for a fee let me know how much and where you are. Thanks everyone.

All I did was typed "MAF" in the search function and found endless threads on this WITH pictures and what to and not to do. I read through 4 of them and learned how to do it. pick one:

All you had to do was go on the sticky on the main page of GS Second Gen threads.

There is a sticky entitled 'Links to most DIYs'. I am 99.9% sure that both of those DIY's are in there.

they are Daniel...i linked another noob who wouldn't/didn't search to them the other day from that exact post.its funny how OP says he searched but first thing Nathaniel does is type in MAF and finds links (BTW Nathaniel your first link is dead)


i think clublexus mods should restrict new members from making new posts till they have a certain "age" on here or post counts (although this would lead to even more silly posts to get to that post count)


OP use this thread for ALMOST anything you need to know man...

WTF? I ALWAYS preview my posts and check links and it worked that was weird. Thanks

Yea, another forum I was in for my other car was that way. I like that idea, HOWEVER, when new members join, CL should have an automatic message with links to the important links needed to start like that DIY master link thread but separated in the message with every make and model. Yea a lot of work, but beneficial to the group.


OP use this thread for ALMOST anything you need to know man...

Jeez guys let the man respond before you give him a bunch of crap. Everyone gets one chance to post a thread about info they could've searched for. After that....flame on.

Go to his thread starter page. He's only been on for 2 weeks and has started 7 threads in just the last week of subjects commonly spoke of. In fact, made 2 threads of the same subject too

this is the same kid who posted his GS was not a worthy car because he didnt like how it felt when going over a large puddle, not knowing he hydroplaned because he doesnt know how to drive.

AND I didnt say its not a worthy car its just different than what I was used to when I thought it would be better since it was better in every other aspect almost. Jeez I cant say nothing without some nerd researching everything I said and jumping on my ****.

calling me a nerd? sweet. however you're the one who said you searched and now you say you didnt search... Us members especially myself enjoy helping people, but when people are lazy and lie about searching, that can get irritating. heres some advice, watch your mouth or you can and will be dropped from the forum because that is not tolerated.

anything brought upon you is brought upon yourself.
