I agree skipp, just lube it up and use it... unless it was buried in a pile
of sand I cant see many benefits to cleaning it, other than getting familiar
with the inside of a duplexer.  Generally I don't ever open duplexers, a
pain in the neck to take a part and way to easy to mess up putting them back
together.  The only time I had to do that was on a sinclair one when I
dropped the rod into the can...oops.
