Kero, WD40 or CRC.
Probably wouldn't use degreaser you might damage the O rings.
Oh oil it up afterwards.

don't get it dirty, then you don't have to clean it.

It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.
Double shot!!
Yip thats a particularly dangerous thing to do. Any rotating machinery with steel teeth on it, is, er, rotating machinery with steel teeth. Is as dangerous as it sounds.

If you want get it really clean, take it off and clean it with kero. I did mine a while ago in a kero bath in an old frypan, it made a huge difference, unstuck a couple of sticky links and an unbelievable amount of crap came off it.
Yup, keep your hands clear of the paper shredder too

Kerosene and an old tooth brush cant get any cheaper really....
holding the line...
diesel is better than kero - has a higher lubrication rating. unless you work at an airport, in which case kero is perfect

+1. Keroscene is cheap, cleans well, and is also a lubruicant (still need to put on chain lube/wax afterwards).

I use kero and a toothbrush. One tip someone told me recently is to tape 2 toothbrushes together with their heads are facing each other - cleans both sides at the same time
