While finishing up the welding on my son's 72 1.7, the engine and trannie are out of the car. Engine is getting cleaned up with powdercoated tin and new hoses, vacuum lines etc.
Trannie has years and years of caked on, baked on grease-oil-dirt etc. We are not interested in cleaning it with a toothbrush and a dental pick. I was considering getting a plastic tub and soaking/spraying it several times over the course of a week with paint stripper, oven-off etc, and then off to the pressure washer at car wash to blast it. I realize that we will probably get some water into the trannie...but we are prepared to drain and refill with fresh TF. Any suggestions on de-greasing products to use? This baby is dirty and its all Brant's fault. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon8.gif) |
