Can I do it without disconnecting any electronics? From what I see on youtube looks pretty easy? Anyone out there have experience doing it?
 
What problem are you trying to resolve?

Just thought it would be a good thing to do? Living and driving in a very dusty region. Can't hurt, can it?
 
If it isn't broken, it might be better to leave it alone.....see the link.....AKA Positive Harm by disturbing a functioning system

Waddington Effect
 
There’s a lot to be said for Waddington. On the otherhand T4R.org was a all a buzz with cleaning throttle bodies on 4th gen V6’s for a minute.

I opted to clean mine. I swear it was a touch more responsive feeling but that’s very subjective. I did it at about 110k IIRC. I was shocked how dirty it was considering I always used Toyota air filters and added a FJ style centrifugal separator.

My point is don’t be discouraged and perhaps check the Tundra threads. Somebody has done it.
