why do you need to clean it? doesn't need touching for over 100K miles

It was a suggestion from another memeber cos ive got the same running problems he had. I always run the car til almost outta fuel and never compeltely fill it so.....

Read the haynes manual for the clios, it's all in their plus how to make a removal tool. And yes you need to depressurise the system.
