: Does anyone have any secret recipies to share as to the best way to get rid of the oil and grease that leaks out around old seals? I'm going at it with a brush right now, but thought maybe someone had found a better way. Any good recipies for this? Beside the industrial stuff I use, Castrol "Super Clean" does pretty good on the baked on residue around the injection pump, oil seals and general mung on the unit. As with any cleaner, ya gotta check if it's going to remove the paint first. I've used the spray degreasers, the oven cleaners and brushes at times. If you think of using a pressure washer/steam cleaner for dirt removal, just be aware that they can and will blow water and or dirt past the sealing surfaces of grease and oil seals if operated too close to the seal.
