I would try throttle body cleaner - safe for seals and sensors .....and compressed air to blast the passages.

As a side note, how difficult are the solenoids (auto tranny for gen 6) to remove. In particuler, removing the solenoid a nad solenoid B. I am having great difficulty in pulling them out. Any help would be appreciated.
