how do you clean the backside of the butterfly valve on electronic Throttle body?

Can you force the butterfly valve to open?

I know you can buy TB cleaner and attached a small tube to the TB, and then spray it while the van is running.

I tried that in the past with the 3M, but it doesn't really clean the gunk completely.

Do I need to take the TB out to clean the backside?

Brick on the gas pedal maybe
Toothbrush and some throttle body cleaner
Probably have to have the key on
