I take mine off the truck and spray in a bunch of either carb cleaner or brake cleaner and swish it around for a couple of minutesand then rinse it out with HOT water.

my mate had an AR50 with a nice chrome micron. we used to fill that with petrol and send him off down the road at night
full throttle with 20 foot flames shooting out of his arse
indeed, those were the days
