Experts, how can I do a throttle body cleaning on my silvertop? Do you have detailed steps or exploded view this engine?

A can of throttle body cleaner and spray at all the holes in the TB till nothing black come out. Best way is take TB off but not needed.

A quick search for "clean throttle body" in the hardcore/tech forum would have brought up 3 or more threads with detailed info and pictures on how to do this

Thanks guys. But my engine has 4 throttle, air flow metered system. I just had a swap 7 months ago, I want to remove and clean the throttle body. Procedures and tips will help a lot. Thanks

Just take it off and send it to a machine shop and have him dip it for 2-3 days keep your hands clean for a while!!!!
