cleaning carbon deposits

Removed upper and middle intake manifold/plenums because I'm replacing my injectors. The plenums as you can guess is filled with caked on carbon deposits that won't leave. I was told to have them soaked in a hot bath, but I'd rather do it my self. What can I soak them in to get the junk out? Or is there a better way.

Diesel. Or Automatic Transmission Fluid is a less dangerous alternative.
