Unfortunately it doesn't come apart. Cover one stub pipe with your finger/thumb, spray as much carb cleaner in as you can, cover the other stub pipe with your thumb/finger & shake & shake. Empty & repeat till cleaner come out clean-ish. Try & move the valve about too. Then lub with 3-in-1 oil or other light oil. :y
I'm sure there's aguide somewhere .......... ???

As Andy says but, with reference to the highlit part, do not use anything metal or sharp down the hole to move the valve as it will damage the valve edge/face and thus give an unreliable idle. :y

Does this need cleaning on a regular basis , say at same time as breathers . I was going to get a spare from the scrapyard today but they had been removed already off the only 2 migs in there :y
