I have never found the need to clean out the gas valve in my many years of service. I replace valves because they either work or they don't due to bad solenoid coils or defective valve.
These are not meant to be serviceable and I wouldn't use mineral spirits.
I see in the manual linked in the OP now, that my problem might be outside the valve part maybe air amount. The flame runs ok and then goes into spasms and then runs well again keeps happening for the whole time when burner on, but it all keeps going.
I have used mineral spirits to clean orifices etc with success, so I thought it would work with this too. What would you clean the pipes and orifices out with?
