I've just stripped the engine from my '71 bus, thought I'd get a gallon or two of solvent to put in the bug sprayer, and clean the daylights out of everything. The only place I've found solvent by the gallon was $20 bucks!!! Ouch, and WalMart doesn't have it. Perhaps there's something cheaper and almost as effective on grease, like Dawn dishwashing liquid? This is probably OK on the shrouding, but how about the inside of the crankcase? What are the tricks and tips on this type of cleaning job? Also, is there a list of Mustdos While the Engines Out? I deeply appreciate the help I get from this list! Working on the bus has certainly been more fun thanks to you generous gurus and others who ask the questions that I was also wondering about. ****************************** * Mitch Covington * * Micropaleontologist * * Tallahassee, FL * * * * mitch@geomag.gly.fsu.edu * * bugware@aol.com * * * * '71 bus (so far) * ******************************
