Title: Recommendations needed to remove carbon from disassembled engine head Post by: Brandon Sinclair on March 22, 2010, 04:31:11 am Tried elbow grease over the weekend but my progress was slow.

works great i actes like a steamcleaner when you take a head of an engine whit a broken headgasket then the one with the crack is clean thath is couse by the water so thats a way to do it but be carefull dont use to much water. henri Title: Re: Recommendations needed to remove carbon from disassembled engine head Post by: 61SNRF on March 26, 2010, 02:34:44 am Spray gasket or paint remover works fast and easy, the kind with methal cloride.
