OR if you have access to a sandblaster that always works well but break clean it first just incase there is extra gas buildup in the ports. You dont want sillica sand in your engine. If you dont have a blaster then engine degreaser. BUt i do think they sell small canister sand blasters at home depot. then the sand you can use you can just go to a pool store and use filter sand thats how i did my Strut tower bar mounts and one of my valve covers.
