It's gray and overcast here in Carlsbad CA (USA), a mile from the coast of the Pacific Ocean, down in the lower left-hand corner of the United States. Here we are in the midst of the annual onshore flow of moist marine air. This causes what is referred to as "June gloom." Sometimes the weatherfolk will call it a "heavy marine layer," but being this close to Camp Pendleton, a US Marine Corps base, that phrase can also refer to a hooker.
But I digress.
Once I get the Wonderbus's engine case open, and pull the crankshaft and cam shaft and any other parts that need removal -- what's the E-Z and effective shade-tree mechanic's case-cleaning technique?
BTW, there /may/ be one of those do-it-yourself car wash places around here with the high-pressure wands, but I'm not entirely certain.
