hi all when I replaced my throttle valve the inlet manifold was full of gunk so I cleaned it best I could no engine light on but I was wondering if I should clean or replace the ( manifold absolute pressure ) sensor & what would cause it to gunk up new sensor part no bosch 0-281-002-845 inlet manifold £38 or anywhere cheaper . the photo is my old throttle control which I renewed I looked like tar

just clean out all you can and refit carb or brake cleaner will clean it up but I would fit the plate to stop this
