for the disassembled motor, use the yellow can of easy off oven cleaner.
Only leave it on for 20 minutes then wipe it all down. It takes several rinse repeat cycles to get it all, but it works. Do it outside...it stinks. If you end up with blackened areas, use straight borax (available in the laundry detergent isle) to neutralise the easy off Lye. It will clean up the pistons again to aluminum. RIch |
