throttle body cleaning - need encouragement 200

Hi all,

this is my first post here,as I just started doing some minor repairs on my Volvo 240. I've been experiencing a rough idle, so in repairing it i will surely start by a throttle body cleaning. There is a desciption of the procedure in the 700/900 FAQ. Is it the same for my 86 245DL? The procedure sounds a bit scary at the first sight - is there any chance that I mess up something big time during the process?

Any caveats, encouragement (or even advising me to pay my mechanic 100 bucks to do it) is welcome.

Thanks all,

Harry
