did good job on the throttle body but needed a good wipe, which is going to be hard for the inlet

+ fire, burn it out?

I used a pressure washer in mine and cleaned it out a beaut and then left it in the airing cupboard for a few days

Go down the petty station, get £5s worth of petty. Put it in a large bucket and submurse the inlet in it and leave to soak for a few days. Wash out with a hose or pressure washer. Jobs a goodun


Oh and use a bucket with a lid

Or even better. Go down pound land and get a £5s worth (5L) of oven cleaner you wont believe how well that works and it cheap from pound land

I think just a good soak and power wadh would do the job though and be a little safer lol
