Absolutely.

Take it off and clean the ports out with a good oven cleaner

Lol, the best stuff I find is the oven cleaner that comes with a plastic bag for the trays.

Pop the valve upside down in a sink and fill the exhaust ports with the cleaner and leave for 30 mins....then give it a good rinse through and repeat.

Its worth also pushing the pintle a few times whilst the cleaner is in the ports
