I guess what I am saying is that with the OEM one you are taking zero risk in trying to clean it, where as with an aftermarket one, it is a financial crapshoot.
With my friend’s aftermarket one we were assuming the valve was not set to the correct parameters to open and close, thus the high idle at operating temp. I asked him if he wanted to mess with it, maybe to try and set it to idle correctly. He said no and we sent it on it’s way to the landfill.
