Its not really exciting dirty, but could use a cleaning.
Make sure to use brake cleaner first and a vacuum cleaner during this action.

Spraysoak the throttle body entirely, let it sit a minute or two then use a vacuum cleaner to get the dirt and cleaner out. Wipe with a clean cloth.

I'm completely dismantling it from the engine. I'm taking it out.
