I'm trying to remove my MAF to get to the IAC and clean the throttle body while i'm at it. I suppose my real question is how to disconnect the throttle cable/linkage/junk to get that MAF outta there. thanks.

the linkage that goes to the throttle body just pulls straight off.

that's a good write-up, only it doesn't explain how to actually remove the throttle body.

There's 4 bolts that attach the throttle body to the intake. 1/2" or 9/16" or something like that IIRC. The bottom right might be hard to get to, you'll definitely need an extension to get in there between the oil fill tube and throttle body.
