I've heard of people using a lot of different things, carb cleaner, gasket remover, oven cleaner, toluene (can get from a professional paint store). Remove the tubes before cleaning & use new gaskets to reattach. Just be careful you don't blow yourself up or burn your skin off. In other words, don't mix chemicals & follow safety cautions for whatever you're using. Wearing those blue nitrile gloves is a good idea - you can get a box from any auto parts or hardware store. Gasket remover melts 'em, btw
