My g/fs accord started to have some oil seep through the valve cover gasket area so I am changing the gasket... when I popped the top I noticed that there is a TON of carbon deposits in the area of the valve springs and empty spaces... (she has 130K miles on it)

1. Is it even good for me to try and clean that crap out?
2. Whats the best way to remove the deposits safely (cleaners? etc...)

Thanks...
