Reel Degreaser/Cleaner???

I have a Shimano reel that I have used a LOT and I would like to clean the innards but getting off the sideplate is a PITA. There is a large port for adding oil to the chamber but here is my question:
What cleaning type fluid would you consider adding through the hole, mix it around a while by reeling it and then drain it until it evaporates? Lastly I would put some fresh oil in there.
But what fluid would you put in there to cut the old (somewhat hard) grease, oil, etc?

We all live for 7 seconds of screaming drag...
