Phil (Phak1) has a good theory about cleaning parts, he said that if you need to remove it, clean it and paint it. That way you eventually have a cleaned and painted project. I have tried to adopt that mindset. Ohh, and "Wallered" is a word.... used it a sentence: My second gear syncro is wallered out..:D
