Not 100% sure but it looks like the inside of the carb and so could be the MAF (mass air flow sensor) I'm sure someone on here could correct me tho

[jonny13_vtr]

I thought the early 1.1's did

Early 1.1s were Single point injection, where as later ones are MPi

[pug205gti87]

thats a single point throttle. umm. its probly somin to do with air comin in. air flow? air mass?

[stalkah66]

carb/brake cleaner would be your best bet to clean it

[AdamWhy]

i used brake component cleaner on my last saxo....worked a treat....

[stalkah66]
