Search this site for "Throttle body cleaning". Worked great for me. Was idling rough, got the codes, dealer said "new throttle body", I cleaned it and has run fine since, about 30K, with an occasional use of a fuel system cleaner. Nothing seems to work for an in-the-tank cleaner better than Techron Concentrate, although I'd bet that Sea Foam is almost as good. But, use a specific throttle body cleaner when you are in there swabbing it. Note that some have reported that the manual cleaning did not work so well, but worth trying when the alternative is a $500 new one, which I have setting on the shelf, by the way.
