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 ![[Image: DSC_0190-Copy_zpsf093f84d.jpg]](http://s1038.photobucket.com/user/167gti8/media/DSC_0190-Copy_zpsf093f84d.jpg.html) Member of 99% warning or your nothing club!

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