Default Throttle body question (stupid)

Ok, this might be a really stupid *** question.

I wanna check out to see if there is any crap building up int he throttle body before the buttefly thing. but i have no idea how to take of the intake rubber tubing connected to it, it has a wire all the way around it and no screw thing to undo like everthing else.

Do i just pull it of or is there like something sepcial i gotta do ?

Did you undo the two 10mm bolts a little further down the pipe?

Not a problem. There are never stupid questions...only stupid answers (and sometimes people :P). Glad I could help.
