You would need a phillips screwdriver and probably a small screwdriver. Before dismantling obtain a service kit as taking the unit apart will probably damage a gasket and it is better to have them available than have to wait for them to arrive.

Cleaning fluid is the same as you would use on a car carb so that should be available at your local car spares shop. Parafin or methilated spirit is also an option. A bit of advice if you have not done this before take photos on your mobile as you take it apart. No mistakes on re-assembly then.
