hi. I'm gradually getting parts together to rebuild my engine. I'm rebuilding the top and bottom end.
Whats the best way to clean the insides of the cases and the transmission etc before I put it all back together? What sort of cleaning stuff should I use?
I'm putting in a 5th gear over drive but apart from that not disassembling the transmission any further. I want to make sure any old crap that's in there from its previous existence is cleaned out and also anything thats gathered during rebuild / moving workshop. Should I wash parts with acetone or something then re-oil?
My crank has been rebuilt and is clean.
I'd also like to clean my top end stuff too. Had a rebore so thats all clean with new pistons and rings although I wouldn't mind some sort of pre build flush out / wipe down to be sure if thats wise.
Any advice would be great. I've found a fair bit about cleaning the outside but not internal. Thanks in advance guys! I'm in Devon, UK by the way. I know we dont often have the same sort of cleaning stuff but I'm sure there will be equivalents.
Cheers Adi
