Follow the rubber air belows from the air filter. You will see where it enters the throttle body. Loosen the clamp and pull off the belows. You will see inside the body a circular plate. Use a plastic tool of some sort to swivel the plate downwards. Spray throttle body cleaner on the plate and both hinges and scrub with a toothbrush or rag.
Just takes 5 min.
