To remove it you should just have to pull the 2 hoses off and remove the connecting plug. As for cleaning, just drown it with carb' cleaner!

And when Datourer says drown he means drown. When you think you have finished cleaning it, spend another 5 minitues on it!

Make sure everything inside moves smothly.
