Default

take the whole thing off..
and give it a good clean out,theres three 10mm bolts that hold it on the inlet.!
undo them get some brake/clutch cleaner in a spray can,and go mad with it,then get a rag and give it a wipe down...
just one thing the pipes that are joined onto it are coolant hoses....
so dont remove them..
