    put the part in a small container of CLR. It's called thinking outside the box

    I cleared mine with compressed air and a small wire. That reminds me, I need to aim them down just a tad.

    ditto....remove just the nozzle and blast some compressed air backwards through it, a needle or small wire would help too.

    Look under the hood and you will see the hoses. Disconnect and then pop the piece out. You have to squeeze the tabs and it will slide right out.
