It's easy to remove, and not hard to clean, but it is VERY messy! Get a load of carb cleaner or similar, and a LOT of rags/kitchen roll.

It might be worth replacing the rubber manifold gaskets while it's off, unless they're in very good condition. They aren't expensive.

Change the diesel filter too, if you have not as that can cause holding back
