After the cleanup all the parts go back on!

The throttle position sensor (TPS) was cleaned up (see post on that), and got two new stainless steel machine screws to hold it in place. It has not been correctly positioned yet. The cold start injector was shined up using fine sandpaper followed by metal polish, it also got new stainless screws to hold it on the manifold.One of the original screws had been replaced (before I got it) with a self-tapping sheet metal screw, that hole had damaged threads. Luckily the threads could be cleaned up by running a tap of the original size through the threads.
The silver colored bracket is to hold the throttle cable in place, it was sanded and painted.
The throttle plate was cleaned up with metal polish along with all the vacuum hose nipples.
The nut that secures the throttle shaft was replaced with a new nylon lock nut. The throttle adjustment screw and nut were also replaced with stainless.
Close-up of the throttle shaft and New York Times before installation. Hopefully I put all this back in the correct order, from left to right, E-ring, washer, space were the plate goes, felt washer, washer with slot to fit on the flattened shoulder of the shaft, spring, don't know what you call it, and nylon insert locknut. The newspaper was read, but not installed in the manifold.
It almost looks brand new. You did a great job cleaning up the intake manifold.
