Some people use diesel, others use cleaners designed for parts washer.

do it right and get parts washer fluid... and about anything you put in there that will clean parts is gonna be hell on your hands... so use gloves

They sell it by the gallon at the local harbor freight, it's like 20 bucks a gallon tho IIRC.

Don't waste your money on water-based cleaners. I've used several including straight Simple Green and none of them worked worth shit. Most of the guys I know run mineral spirits. Keep the lid closed and it shouldn't evaporate away too fast.

Most good parts stores sell 5 gallon buckets of solvent for that.
