My head gasket gave up and i now have a shed load of oil in the header tank and associated pipe work.... Does anyone know or advise me as to the best way of removing all the oil.

Any suggestions would be helpful as just washing it through just aint working..

 

Is it a standard plastic header tank?? one trick is to half fill with cooked rice and jizer or gunk, give it a good swerling around, repeat process a couple of times and then bung it in the dishwasher on the hottest wash

Also heard that trick works well.

Out of interest - Yesterday I used autoglym engine cleaner on an oily fingerprinted internal plastic panel. The results were amazingly good.

 

cheers fella

 

Dishwasher is my new parts cleaner, to my missus dismay. LOL
