Simple Green actually works pretty well. There used to be a GREAT aerosol product called Steam, if that's still around I'd use it. Just be careful not to hose down plastic parts with it, it'll dry them out.

I really like spray nine, or the hotter version "Grease off"... spray on and use a tapioca brush. cuts right through really well.

I used a couple cans of brake and parts cleaner. It gets all teh grease and dirt off and leaves it clean and dry, ready to paint if you like.
