I have just taken my 1994 M Reg Vauxhall Corsa GLS 5dr Auto 1.4 Petrol to a garage today as it’s been really bad on fuel. Filled my tank up for the second time since buying the car. The car did 130 miles on a full tank, which cost about £42.
My mechanic says my cars needs a new or second hand throttle body.
Just wondering, would it be cheaper to clean the existing throttle body or buy new or replace the throttle body? Please explain. How do I clean the throttle body?
Thank you in advance.
