Petrol.

Get a pan or something large enough to fit the IC in. Block the holes on the reverse, pour a bit of petrol into the throttle body hole, cover it, and give it a good shake.

Empty the petrol, and continue to clean petrol.

Once finished, leave the IC out in the sun, and the petrol will dry and evaporate out.
