I would take it to an engine rebuilding shop and get them to soak it in their costic bath,won't cost much.

Bill just get a gas flame going inside,and heat it up.Then when the carbon glows red inside you can use compressed air.Things heat up pretty quick.Watch out you don`t melt muffler.That`s how i burn out the carbon in mufflers on chainsaw & trimmers at my business,cheers from grant
