Cleaning Engine Components
So I was wondering what kinds of cleaner can I use to clean my engine block, heads, pistons, and cylinder walls. While pulling the timing gear out of the oil pump and using pb blaster on it. I noticed it really cleaned all of the surrounding oil and such. Can I use that to clean at all?

I use TSP to clean and prep machinery. it dissolves grease and gas stains. It is available at most hardware stores. I put 1 tablespoon in hot water in a spray bottle. You can scrub with brushes and rinse often to not let it dry. It won't etch the aluminum or remove paint. Much safer than blasting with a power washer.

gunk is great but you need to let it sit awhile before rinsing. I use a 1600 psi pressure washer after that using care to not blow water into places it doesn't belong - like the tps or maf connectors or dizzy cap.
