take the 8mm bolt out that holds it to the bracket, then it just pops off, if its never come off it might just need a little wd40 and some elbow grease

They're no doubt baked on there after so many years of being on the car...It'll just take some elbow grease..or you can take it off at the vacuum tree and then work it off when you get the intake out of the engine compartment.

To remove the throttle cable, you just stick a flat blade screwdriver in between the cable connector & the throttle armature and twist the screwdriver...it'll pop right off of the ball.
