Now then folks!

Finally got my block black from the engineer. Now the plan is to paint it this weekend although i was wondering how people clean the block inside?

I've doused the block in Carb cleaner and cleaned as much as i could and blew out with a compressor but there's still bits of swarf and dried oil inside the oil ways etc.

How do people clean / wash their block? Really don't want to put it back together while there's contamination floating around in the oil.

Any advice would be great!

 

Wd40 and lots of air. I used pipe cleaners as well mate. Make sure u can take all the alan key grub screws out

 

Allen key grub screws?

 

think they are for oil gallery access to get the brushes inside.

Pressure washer everything! Take out the ball bearing at the rear of the block (long piece of steel rod an a hammer from the front) and all of the core plugs at the front and pressure wash (plain water) through.
