87 22re. Trying to pull my throttle body off to relace TPS.
Unbolted 4 places... won't budge. I smacked it repeatedly in multiple directions as hard as I dare with a plastic mallet to no avail. Thinking of soaking the mating joint with something...acetone, Kroil, Pepsi..??
Don't see any good pry spots right off either. Anyone been there?
