Might try plugging it back in, clear the codes and see if (how much) it picks up. Should be a very noticeable performance increase. To clear the codes just pull the ECM Batt fuse & cycle the key on & back off. Plug the fuse back in and your good to go. No need to trick the ECM into not "seeing" that you cooled it down.
If you used something like Berryman's B12 Chemtool to clean the throttle body, take a look at the spark plugs. Probably needs a set now. :-)
Good luck

Oh no Ed, I was much dumber than that. This was regular off the shelf Gumout carb cleaner. I plugged my scanner back in to clear the codes. The lite hasn't come back on, yet. I will try the ECM Batt fuse. Where do I find the ECM Batt fuse? Would this be the same as the PCM fuse in the panel?
I thinking of changing the plugs anyway.
Thanks.
