Yes, pretty straightforward, remove, clean the passage best you can, try to keep the crud from going into it (I run a shop vac hose right bext to it as I clean to inhale the loose crud), careful not to scratch the metal (don't use hard metal scraper or anything), make sure the gasket seal is good and there is nothing that would prevent the valve from seating as you put it back together....
