probly ok to if you're gentle, and dont leave any fluff behind. I guess the perfect way is 2 use carb spray then use compressed air to dry it and blow off whats left of the muck, available from maplins for 4.99 a can

to clean the icv properly u really do need 2 take it out. a torx allen key should fit in there, between £5-10 for a small draper set.
