As per title would like recomendations for fluid to put in a parts washer mainly for removing oil/grease.

Finally got round to buying a cheap parts washer. It's just a metal tub with a pump and low pressure jet. The one I bought came with a 5 gallon can of parts washer fluid but it seems pretty unimpressive. To be fair it is cleaning the parts but takes quite a lot of brushing to be effective and is nowhere near as good as petrol which I would usually use. The active ingredient seems to be sodium hydroxide.

What do others use in your parts washers?

No nonesense heavy duty degreaser from Screwfix is cheep and works quite well for general cleaning and degreasing

Can't speak how well it would work in a parts washer however
