you shouldnt need to parts but.............

#

this is bad plug it back into the matchine but do not mount it then heat it up to 200 c and get a pair of pliers or something start pulling it off

#

gett all you can out and you should be able to clean it up really well
you can wipe small bits off with a paper towel
DONT BURN YOURSELF
