The one thing I know of, I believe its called After run. Cleans all of the left over mung out and prevents the nitro from turning into gum.

I don't think so I was just curious on how it would be done just in case I get sand in it by accident, (I drive it in the desert).

If you get sand in your engine, stop it immediately and take it to your local hobby shop to be dismantled and cleaned if you aren't comfortable doing it yourself. There's nothing you can run through it to get sand or grit out without damaging the piston and sleeve, along with the bearings.

no, dont pull the pull start dude, take it apart and spray everything out with WD 40, if you pull it around, you are going to scrape the sand and whatever else up against the P/S and it will scar the sides of it. That will eventually cause premature engine failure.
