Cellulose thinners always used to be good at getting deposits off.

Otherwise, how about oven cleaner, we bought some the other day that came with a big bag that you put all the oven trays in and then poured the liquid in. Worked well on the oven.

Funnily enough it was actually running OK, albeit that it was very
occasionally dropping into limp-home mode.  Still getting 50mpg if I
tickled it.  I was getting an underpressure DTC, so I was expecting a
coked up turbo, but not this stuff in the inlet manifold.
Anybody got any ideas about "nasty chemicals" as I've soaked it in
petrol and attacked it with a toothbrush, but it would be nice to get
it really clean?

oooooo that's nasty - I had the one off my tcdi mondeo a few weeks
back. 100,000 miles and it was pristine compared to that one but still
in need of a clean.

However, mine is knackered, there is wear on the shaft and so it
sticks causing hiccups at around 2000 rpm.

Nothing that some nice dangerous solvent wouldn't shift.
Except you probably can't buy nice dangerous solvent now and will have
to spend hours scrubbing it with something environmentally friendly.
