I have used mineral spirits mixed with a few gallons of diesel and a quart of ATF. The ATF absorbs moisture in the system, mineral spirits are rather harsh on the hands so by cutting it with diesel fuel you have a good cleaning fluid and your hands won't be cracked and sore after using it a bunch of times.
