Default SOMETHING GOT INTO THE INTAKE

I was cleaning the throttle body with a cleaner that have that little red straw to spray on the throttle plates and inside of it and it got into the intake, I already tried to suck it out with a vacuum cleaner but it didn´t came out. What can I do? Will that little thing hurt my engine if I leave it in there? Please HELP ME!!

umm yes... if it gets sucked through ur intake into the head or even past the head into a cylinder your motor is done, you need to pull your throttle body off and then the space and try to fish it out, if not you need to pull your upper intake off and blow air all through it and hope it flys out, if not you will need to pull your lower intake [&o]and hope you see it, if not man, your gonna be **** out of luck if it gets in a cylinder
