Cleaning<BR><BR></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've stumbled across what appears to be an
outstanding product for cleaning crud from engines, both external and
internal. The stuff is "Power Dissolver" from Dawn (available at the local
grocery store), it's designed to be used on cooking utensils, grills, etc. and
is washed off with water. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I decided to try it on the internals of an engine
that was pretty cruddy. The directions say to spray it on and wait 10-15
minutes before washing it off with water. I found that it worked in a minute
or two, a light brushing with a bristle brush removes carbon from the piston
top, combustion chamber, and exhaust valve. A quick rinse with water and blow
dry resulted in shiny, new appearing parts. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It has a mild citric odor that's not unpleasant.
The label describes the contents as a "biodegradable alkaline cleaning agent",
so I would expect that it might darken aluminum / brass parts is soaked too
long.</FONT></DIV>
