[SEL] Engine Hygiene

[Spencer Yost]

Hey,

At Portland over the years, I asked a few of you what you clean your original (unrestored) engines with.  The answer I remember hearing most was diesel fuel; after getting off the worst of the crud and dirt by gentle scraping.   But, because I have early onset CRS , I am not sure of that answer.  Does that sound right?

I always admired the patina of some of our group's original engines at Portland.  I'd like to recreate that as best I can.  

Thanks!

Spencer
