Blue93G20 03-02-2006, 12:59 PM Alright my new motor is showing up next week and i plan on cleaning it and painting it before it goes in. WHats a really good engine cleaner to get off all those years of it sitting in a warehouse somewhere. I've used engine degreaser and that works alright but i want something more powerful? Any suggestions? SRx5 03-02-2006, 01:21 PM Steam cleaning or a pressure washer with degreaser.

Nice tips! Never thought about the buffer thing! You could also get a some rouge(spelling??) and polish the block too!! :D martin_g34 03-24-2006, 04:55 AM Motul MotoWash is your friend | ||
