I had the Mahle 94 mm P&C pulled and replaced with 96mms
The pistons were cleaned with oven cleaner; now there are a few black carbon remaining. How should I proceed with removing them before looking for a new home ? Attached image(s)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VcPkLuX4CAU Reality check. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) https://www.berrymanproducts.com/products/e...-parts-cleaner/ https://www.youtube.com/results?search_quer...an%27s+chem+dip It is possible to de-coke the pistons and valves in situ,making a visual inspection simpler. Used with an ultrasonic tub,the potmetal and alloy parts emerge immaculate,and undamaged. Cleaning of aero parts is effected in a similar way,mil spec,have been for decades. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) / Using the product,one would marvel at the results,like with the oil stained cylinder heads of your favorite air-cooled engine. The stuff is fabulous,the aluminum or magnesium castings pristine.Trans shops use it to rework rebuilds,as new. There are similar,competing brands,tho they are less eco-friendly,some are real nasty. https://www.google.ca/search?q=gunk+carb+cl...SS5v9ilc8E_M%3A (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) / |
