i know this has been on this forum numerous times but memory isnt my thing. my pedal is quite heavy and i know its from the throttle plate sticking but i dont mind that at all really. however just more recently i have been noticing a flutter under low acceleration and am begining to think the stickiness is becoming excessive and not always allowing fuel and air to pass thru properly. so just what is the best thing to use to clean the throttle body and where mite i find it?

You could just spray it with some WD-40 to lubricate it. Doesn't matter if it goes into the carb/engine. Just wipe all the excess dirt off with an old rag first so it doesn't go in there.
Or just use any kind of spray silicone.

If you wanna clean the inside of the throttle body use some Berryman B-12. It will get the carbon and junk outta there.

ya, any carb cleaner should work as well for cleaning it.
