throttle body question

I cant find a write up here on how to clean the throttle body for a 2000 max after searching high and low. I did find a writeup on http://www.motorvate.ca/mvp.php/517 - the motorvate.ca site, but thats for a 97/98 and the 2000 looks different enough under the hood to confuse me.
So anyone have a good write-up on how to clean the throttle body for a 2000 max?
THanks

it is the identical process as the 4th write up you found. the only thing different is the intake resonator which is just a different size.

Does anyone know if I have to remove the air filter/oil separator / MAF as he recommends or can I just take off the accordian/worm hose to the throttle body and get the job done. Will I have enough clearance if I only remove this accordian/worm hose?

You can probably just remove the accordian/worm hose and get into there if you have an aftermarket filter. But it'd probably be easier if you just removed the MAF/airfilter and oil separator.
