hey just wondering if anyone knows of a good powerful degreaser. aussie exports and other spray cans like that just dont seem to cut it. but also dont want one thats going to peel paint or damage wires. so im guessing no acid based degreasers. cheers

even the cheap export stuff will do the job in a pinch, you just have to let it sit to soak, might need to give it a light scrub as well or have a couple of cracks at it.

Thanks everyone. I ended up giving Bowdens Own Orange agent a crack. Worked really well, engine is nice and clean now. But thanks for your time.

You can cause a miss. Better to do it cold and air blow them.
