Any pictures?  I'm wondering if they are spool valves or diaphragm valves.

Those are probably a type of diaphragm valve, but I've never looked inside one before to see how they work.  My recommendation would be to start taking it apart, carefully noting what goes where, and see if you can get to the inside and get it cleaned up.  Either that, or contact EAI (or whoever bought them out) and ask them how you would go about cleaning them.
