cleaner<BR><BR></FONT></DIV><FONT id=role_document face=Arial>
<DIV>Those of you that don't want to handle some of the corrosive chemicals
one could use to clean 2 stroke headers and ally pipes, my friend Gary showed
me a nontoxic method that anyone can use. Why didn't I think of that?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Dip the header or pipe in warm water with some dishwashing liquid and
then take a Brillo or SOS (steel wool with soap) pad and scrub it. It
surprised me how quickly and easily it worked. In ten minutes I had both the
header and pipe cleaned, and the header especially was caked pretty good with
baked on oil. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I used the new Brillo with Oxy Action, but I think either will work fine.
$1 for 5 pads at the local WynnDixie. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Then worked the typical polishing with Brasso metal cleaner, and after
about 20 minutes polish job, pipe and header look better than when new.</DIV>
