is it possible to cut one open to clean it then put back together

[Lewis.]

yes, but don't expect it to actually work lol
just stick it in the dishwasher mate, it will come up like new

[MK1_Ben]

I would assume you could by using decent Epoxy/plastic welding it.

What's wrong with sticking it in the Dishwasher, or putting water, gravel and a dishwasher tablet in it and giving it a good shake?

[LEWI007]

I think it would build up with pressure when its on the car and break open.

But i almost guarantee filling a container up with slightly watered down bleach and submerging it in there for 1-2 days will bring it out propably better condition than new !

[Lewis.]

i'd never trust it again though, that really hot day when the needle is right up to the red, and your giving it some toe, will be when it goes pop.

filling it with bleach over night works too.

[LEWI007]

Ive restored alot of plastic things using bleach, and if you leave it long enough without picking at it youll be suprised how effective it is.

Just try and clean as much of the crap off it by hand first.

[paddy quinn]

its got the tipical rust marks in the bottem and some sort of white stain on the inside and its in the dishwasher now

[LEWI007]

If your not happy with it after it comes out the dishwasher, try the bleach, im confident it will work.

You can still get new ones for £20ish if yours doesn't clean up
