timbo Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 well, as fate would have it, I am using the morning to degrease a diff, and do a few loads of washing. Go figure. I conned the missus into hanging it out though, because I smell like kero, and have the odd deposit of grease on me. Something tells me I won't be able to hang the diff on the line. Pity.

Des Morgan Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 Give her a couple of quid to go out & give it a quickish cycle in the Dishwasher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonr Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 The dishwasher is fantastic for parts cleaning! Greasy dirty things come out looking very bling! We have a little table-top washer. I'm waiting for Sarah to demand a big one which fits in the gaping hole under the worktop in the kitchen - and then it can live in my workshop! Recomend powder without salt if you want it to stay looking bling for more than a few mins. Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Des Morgan Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 ................ & if you take the new, big one out to the workshop for a"slight adjustment & 60 day test" you could even finish up with that one. For the larger parts of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maarten88 Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 Agree, use the dishwasher. Tried it, works a treat. I won't tell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Reedy Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 But it does erode ali a bit, as I've found with bike parts. Takes the shine off and leaves the surface pitted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steffUK Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 I always use it for the rebuild of my winch (usally around x-mas) there is nothing better than a 8274 in the dishwasher :-) steff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
