Hi Folks,
I am wondering what people use to clean their engine parts with, specifically the cylinder heads? Long ago in a past life, while working at a boat yard, I remember dunking my oil caked, carbon fouled, nasty cylinder heads in this chemical bath over night. When I pulled them out in the morning and washed off the heads they looked as good as new! I don't remember the name of this stuff and it's probably not available to back yard hackers like myself but figured I would see what everyone else uses to clean their engine parts. Thanks in advance! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) -Rob |

For small parts I usually drink a Guiness, eat a sprig or two of broccoli, some times even keep it down with some chilli. Watch SPEED channel for an hour to let the mixture percolate in my system, then drop the part on the drive way and pee on it. Not only does the part come out clean but I can leave it out there for days and NOBODY will touch it.
