Poor idling, the suspected part is air mass meter inside the throttle body.
Is there any way to diagnose it? I'd like to make sure if it really fails
before going to replace a whole throttle... Possible other faults?

first check the plug assy on the side, I once had one in with a dodgy
connection, a cable tie fixed it!!!

Ok, what about reading some codes from ECU if it doesn't help?

if you have the right ecm there is a led on the side and a connector , ign
on, bridge ign and chk on the ecm for two seconds, remove bridge, count
pulses from the mil lamp.  long flash equals a ten, short flashes the units.

long pause seperates the codes.

otherwise the led is on the dash, the method is the same

or use a dedicated hook up to the data link in the fuse box
