I thought folks might be interested to see the progression of the transaxle for our 914-6.

After a lot of elbow grease from the wife, using Simple Green Extreme with scrigit plastic scrapers and scrub brushes. Some of the larger deposits required chiseling off with a plastic paint scraper. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stirthepot.gif)

I treated my case with LPS 3 to preserve the finish.

I had not heard of the product before. What I have used on other magnesium components, like the fan shroud, is Gibbs Lubricant. Didn't think to try it on the case.
