X2 on the Ultrasonic Cleaner. I have an Ultrasonic Cleaning Tank and I did that with My Tumbler and a lot of tiny stuff came out of it.
I used something similar to Purple Power/Simple Green.
Since I don't think most People have an Ultrasonic Cleaning Tank you might ask you local Fuel Injection Shop to tank it.
