Boil them in a pan of hot water and the grease should liquify and lift off. If any residue remains, rinse them off with hot water and dish soap. Dry them well.

Get some mineral spirits or kerosene, pour it into a bucket and drop it all in. stir them around a bit and the grease should come right off.
I have cleaned many greasy auto parts this way.

Try using Dawn dishwashing detergent, the original type (blue). Rub it directly on the items and then rinse with very hot water....Or, you can let the items soak in hot water and Dawn and wash off.
Hope it helps.

Go to a car parts store and ask if they have a parts washer. Don't use kerosene; what are you going to do with the contaminated kerosene? Boiling them doesn't work well; I've tried that.
