I thought folks might be interested to see the progression of the transaxle for our 914-6.
 It has been sitting, out of the car, since at least 2007. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif)  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)  Upon return from California Motorsports (CMS) comprehensive rebuild.

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

Hot tank parts washer and a laser have been very helpful. I also use Gibbs to keep it clean and from corrosion. Decent stuff. Havent used the LPS3, but its likely similar stuff. |
