Hopefully someone more knowledgeable will be able to provide more help!
Oh, ahhahaha, I meant the second generation hybrid. Probably should have worded that better. THe HCHII 2007. I recently got a reconditiong kit from hybrid automotive, and hopefully that will up my mpg to 50 as im only getting like 35 mpg. town and highway. The erg valve is a kind of tube, and I think I might be able to clean it with the solvent spray I use for cleaning throttle body, however I would at least like to see some pics as I have never done this before.
