It's pretty simple just pour in some petrol and give it a good shake around then repeat until it comes out clean. Then shake out as much of the petrol as you can and place the intercooler in the sun to allow the petrol to evaporate. If you're concerned, when you've finished with the petrol switch to methylated spirits then allow to sit in sun to evaporate.
