Soak it with a good cleaner- any in particular, then steam clean it.

Scuba you are now the official- Search Man, the yota tech hero.

Simple green and other similar products will do. Dirty as "balls" huh?

I've tired 4 cans of degresser+pressure spray....didn't do very good. Tried 3 cans of WD40 on entire motor didn't do much. Tried reg soap and water...nope. Tired purple power and didn't do much either.... Its still got lots of splash mud on everything and motor grease one front and block....

did you try any elbow grease i heard somewhere it works wonders on pretty much anything

the thick stuff is going to be manual removal a stiff brush, something to scrape with and a lil degreaser, on the really thick stuff degreaser doesnt do much because it only works on the top layer and wear some glasses you will not regret it

scuba 02-24-2009 11:23 AM

hah new sig link !! :dj:
