If there's still enough epoxy in the jugs that the pumps are working, leave them in. I recently removed mine because there wasn't enough hardener left in the jug to use a pump. I pumped them empty back into their respective containers, disassembled and cleaned them as best as I could with acetone, then soaked them for two days in white vinegar. Then, I washed them with a mild detergent soap and warm water, rinsed them THOROUGHLY, and put them away. They appear to be as good as new.
