ya you can take the map sensor off and spray in the hole.. blow it out before you put back.. break the screw with a needle nose visegrip they are easy to strip. don;t use carb cleaner.. use throttle body cleaner.. if it was the same it would be called carb/throttle body cleaner!

might also be an idea to remove the valve cover to intake pipe to stop this oil crap getting in your throttle?

first spray the t/b cleaner in the throttle, get an old toothbrush, open the throttle and scrub inside and on the throttle plate aswell, then once done that, start the car in a well ventilated area, and spray the rest of the t/b cleaner in while running and opening the throttle just a little
