Engine cleaning/ degreasing question
Green1:
Soak and scrub works on small engines so I can't see why it wouldn't on something larger.If painting something bare I tend to run thinners over it first.
As long as you remember to re bottle the brake cleaner when finished you can reuse it. I'm not a tight wad honest. ;)
I'v not delved into a 750 yet it's taken me three years to put it in the frame God knows how long it would take me to rebuild it. :-[

Its £11.60 plus vat for 5 litres. It works like magic, easily the best degreaser I have ever used. And its water based. The address on the label is where I get it from as its close by me. Don't know if they mail order, but it really is that good its worth a phone call.

Cheers Royhall,
I've literally just got back from my local motor factors and bought some Jizer by swarfeger and 5l of clutch and brake cleaner.
Never mind, I'll give these a go and let you know how I get on.
I'm powder coating the block and some engine parts so it has to super super clean and free of oil!
royhall:
Not sure powder coating the block is a good idea unless your using the nylon stuff. It can bubble up with repeated use. Never used the higher heat rated nylon stuff but wouldn't mind seeing the results.
