If you look at this last pic, Just above the throttle plate where you see the channel, in the upper part of the channel resides the Idle Air Controler... Hope that helps... I'll come up and take care of it for you, after I buy some ratchet wrenches...lol

That buildup is caused by, Unburned fuel, PCV vapors, and EGR.... I think EGR would be the main thing...

Yep, my EGR is located right past the TB.. but on the Intake. Not two inches from the TB either. Basically, that means that my [and your'*] will be/is covered in hard carbon and just all around ****. If only our engines would just have fresh air pass through the intake.. then we wouldn't have any problems.
