Can anyone please tell me how I would clean the throttle body? I bought a can of carbeaurator cleaner but I am not sure if it can be used to clean the throttle body in my '97 XJ. If yes, where do I spray the stuff? I removed my filter assembly hose and I saw the throttle. It was pretty clean but I can tell that if I flip the throttle a bit (don't know if I can do that or not) there are lots of black carbon stuck to the sidewalls of the throttle body. I tried spraying some in there and letting it slide down the body but I don't think that worked too well.

Carburator cleaner will work, however you are better off taking the throttle body right out of there. and cleaning it by hand ...
