I am planning on Sea Foaming the Jeep this weekend and wanted to poke around beforehand so I could get an idea of what I'll need to do. I noticed that I can't really get to the throttle body without removing the intake resonator. When I went to remove the resonator, I couldn't get to the Torx screws holding the box in place. Does anyone have any advice/help for this (hopefully the CAI folks)??

to remove the air box you literally just pull after disconnecting it from the intake pip that connects to the throttle body.. make sure no moisture gets in there though or if it does dry it

Stupid question here...

Are you going to clean the throttel body butter fly?

Then, Introduce the Sea Foam through a Vacumn line?

Why SeaFoam an almost brand new vehicle?

I'm going to sea foam through the brake booster, and then spray some deep creep into the throttle body fly...

Also, my Jeep has 64k miles on it so I don't really consider it that new anymore :ROTFL:

Careful spraying the stuff into the throttle body butterfly, if you spray too much at one time it will bog down the engine and it will cut off. You'll want to keep the spray nozzle back a few inches and spray a little at a time.
