Default throttle body

Hello again fellas.
Can anyone tell me about the removal of the throttle body on a saph cos? I want to take mine off to give it a good clean and help to clean up the engine bay. Is it a straight forward job? im not sure whats inside it and dont want to damage anything by taking it off.
Many thanks.
Muffster.

So long as you don't undo the throttle plate is will be ok, nothing really to break.
Just be carefull not to overtighten the 13mm head bolt holding the linkage as they snap easy!!

Cheers tabetha. I thought you'd come up with an answer. It came off dead easy.
