your cleaning of the intake throttle body did not cause this failure..
a forum member just reported that this repair was completed for 600.oo..

Easy does it there Airjer_
Lets not turn this post into a pissing match.
Here is the quote from J cAT's post.
Reread it.
He only pointed out the proper use of Dex Cool coolant.
Which should be followed out.
Also that the use of other types of coolant can cause damage.
Which a good Tech/mencanic knows.
And that a forum member had just done the job.
He was trying to help the origional poster.
Which we are here for.
