washer inlet valve cleaning

[wp-dude22]

i have a washer here the cold water inlet seems clogged its a inglis iv4800 (whirlpool built) it has the white plastic inlet filters with a flat protruding dash on it which leads me to believe its removable but im not sure. is there any way to lean them any help would be cool if not i think im gonna go buy a set of front loaders since we may move soon .... if not ill change the valve.

that's the valve cant get a shot of the screens themselves but
