Kate:
I cleaned one of those up a while back--I used a soak in a tub of 
kerosene--cleaned it inside and out, then sprayed it with engine cleaner, 
followed by a strong hosing.  I followed all that with some aluminum wheel 
cleaner (with phosphoric acid base), and sprayed that off after about 5 
minutes.  The last step I used after watching my air conditioner man clean 
the fins of our air conditioner with a phosphoric acid solution. It's pretty 
now, although I am going to have to use some silver solder or somthhing to 
replace one of the nozzles where the DPO tried to remove it and broke it off!
