Is there a write up to cleaning it? I searched and no luck.

My idle is low and jump around all over the place.

89 4.0
 
It's not hard. Just disconnect everything attached to the TB and unbolt it. Remove all the sensors and spray the hell out of it with carb cleaner.
 
If you remove some of those sensors don't they need adjusted on reinstallation?

Only the TPS on an 87-90. You could probably get away with leaving that on there if you try not to spray it directly with carb cleaner...

yes..

have a look at the seafoam post.. its a few posts down from here. :D

i say no. no adjustment needed as long as you dont take of the tps. iac can be removed.

disconnect the iac and tps. you can leave the tps in, just dont spray cleaner all over it. the iac should be cleaned real well with cleaner.

i clean mine once a year on my 89 and no need to make an adjustment(although i know how).
