[QUOTE="69ST, post: 175746, member: 5"] Brakleen is potent stuff. For this kind of bulk cleaning, however, you'd be better off with a 2.5 gallon bench top parts washer and mineral spirits. The petroleum-based solvent is far less aggressive & volatile. It won't affect paint, or leave items like transmission parts susceptible to flash rust. I'd recommend a trip to HF for the parts washer and relegating Brakleen to final cleaning, immediately prior to oiling, as you reassemble the motor. Can't really see any serious injuries, in this series of pix. There may be a lot of cleaning in your future but, it'd be a bit surprising if the replacement parts total exceeds what's lurking beneath your sofa cushions. [/QUOTE]
