Do you ever have to clean these pumps? Does the glue dry in the ends? If so, how do you clean them?

I hate to double post, but the original syringe post is somewhere around
page 3 right now if anyone knows how to link to it. I suppose I could just
bump it to the first page, but I hate doing that too.

If glue dries in the needle you will have a hard time cleaning it out. I just
leave mine in a glass of water by the sink.

And Michael, yes it's a mini - I suppose there's no good size reference in the

My set cleaned up well just by soaking in hot water and then shooting water through the works about 10 times, and then just let the water dry.

Since "The Wizard" probably uses his on a daily basis the constant soaking is part of the routine.
