Default Cleaning Intake Upper/Lower

I just pulled a Explorer intake from the yard and would like to hear a few ways to clean it up. What do you guys/girls do to clean out this old gunk.

I've always had great luck with a 20 oz. aerosol can of Berryman - B12 Chemtool Carburetor Cleaner
You can find it at most auto parts store.
