It has a good air filter and seals up nicely. The MAF sensor sits inside the air filter. It is clean, and the throttle body is clean above the plates.

I was tuning up my Grand Marque, 120K miles, so I opened the throttle body on it to see what was inside. I has carbon on it too but less sooty. More miles but less overlap on the valve timing. I have to believe the overlap is playing a key roll.

Thanks for the replies to all who responded.
