cleanin oil out of intercooler
Landynuts:
I used white spirit as well (I had a 5 litre bottle handy) soaked it for a couple off hours, loads of crud came out. Make sure you dry it completly before running the engine.
jaws:
blast out with steam cleaner using soap till suds run clean...thats how we do it at work
Ja1983:
left it pipes up and filled as far as i could with parrafin, then petrol, then hot soapy water, then cold water (hose) then left in the "workshop" (SWbo hasnt noticed the utility room looks different :twisted:) for last few weeks to dry out.
about 2 weeks with parafin, 3 days with petrol (too many people wandering around it with a cig in their gob!) and an hour or so flushing water/soap through. all in about a good handfull of poop came out!
..just need to find time/motivation/fair weather to swap it with my origonal one!
might paint it up a bit too! :twisted:
ben_haynes:
i would recomend petrol or parafin as Diesel will leave a Oily residue in side causing it to pick up S*** again
Disco Matt:
Paraffin will be cheaper than petrol or diesel. Just remember to collect it, return it to the bottle, and take it to a proper disposal site.
