I've noticed for quite some time that my 99' GA doesn't seem to decelerate like it used to. It's most noticeable at highway speeds around 60mph. I take my foot off the gas and it just keeps right on coasting. My suspiscion is a clogged intake (MAF, throttle body, and possibly UIM). I know my air filter is full of carbon deposit. I have 70,000 miles and have never had any of these parts cleaned. Are they the problem?

I've had the intake off to install the Dr.Speed Stage III I so I think I'm going to go ahead and clean the parts and see what happens. Only thing I'm worried about is the TB. I've searched the threads and need to know how to take off the TB for cleaning. What sensors to watch out for and any other problems I might run into. Will I be able to reconnect all the sensors without getting a SES light? And finally, what type of cleaner should I use that is safe with all the sensors? Carb cleaner or throttle body cleaner will work right?
