Johnson:
Thanks for the great feedback on your success with trans mount. Here is a good post on throttle body cleaning. Be sure to not turn on engine until you have reconnected the air pipe.

It's easy. Loosen the clamps on both ends of the short u-shaped hose that
connects the turbo pipe to the throttle body. Work the hose off the throttle
body by twisting it back and forth - it will be on tight. Then work the hose off
the end of the turbo pipe. Since you can't run the engine with the turbo pipe
off, open the butterfly valve by pushing down gently with a screwdriver and
spray throttle body cleaner into the body. Work the valve back and forth while
spraying as well to clean off the pivot. Reattach the hose to the turbo pipe,
and then to the throttle body. Make sure the hose seats properly on the throttle
body - there is a notch cut in it so it seats. Also make sure you torque the
clamps good and tight - I didn't and the hose popped off under hard
acceleration.
Start the engine and let it run for a few minutes. It may take some extra
cranking to start it. That's it.
If the TB has never been cleaned, you may want to repeat this two or three
times. Just don't torque the clamps until you're finished so you can easily
remove them. I clean my TB every four or five months.
Good luck.
