Default sticking throttle

i swapped out my throttle body today due to a bad TPS; the new throttle body has a gunky build-up on the manifold side and it sometimes sticks. how should i go about cleaning this. TIA.

if it still sticks after you clean it, there's a little bolt+nut under the throttle **** that holds the **** at its base position.. screw that in a little more until the plate lifts enough not to stick, but not enough to allow air to get in..
