Default Removing CA (crazy glue)

Yesterday I ran into a bit of a jam with my current build. Some CA (crazy glue) ran down one of the aileron linkages and went into the brass tube that the linkage runs through. Now the linkage binds up when being moved. So is there a way to remove the CA from the assembly? I am planning to remove the effected aileron linkage from the wing and then attempt to remove the CA that seeped in between the linkage and the brass sleeve. Two ways I've been thinking of doing this is to heat up the linkage under a flame like gas kitchen stove since the linkage is a solid bent metal rod and the sleeve is brass, or, soak the entire linkage in some type of solvent that will free up the CA.

Does anyone know what would work best?

Thanks
