Don et al, This just makes me cringe. Every morning on my way to work I pass the remains of a house that burned to the ground as a result of the owner cleaning some car parts with gasoline. I don't k

I set a house on fire back in 1971 draining the gas tank on a project car. I had been using a large galvanized tub to clean parts in the basement garage of the house. After several days of cleaning p

I have a parts cleaner that I fill with a commercial auto parts cleaning fluid. It is expensive but lasts quite a long time and has a very high flash point. In fact is is difficult to light. It also

Your story of draining a gas tank into a tub brings to mind another dangerous practice. We had an expert Jaguar machanic, Geoff, who worked out of his garage. He tuned and cared for a lot of Jags, a

We were putting a 289 4 speed into a 1960 Falcon 6 cyl Automatic Station Wagon. Oh well. What else do you do when you're 22? The rear end had no axle and it was up on jack stands. No moving the car.

I have used large quantities of inexpensive mineral spirits/paint thinner with good results. Although not as aggressive as other solvents, it's low odor and relatively high flash point make it a safe

I've read a number of the re-posts and answers on this topic, and am reminded of why they have so many ground cables around aircraft when fueling. Might not be a bad idea to ground the container to t

What's the state of the art on washing parts? The junk under the hood is amazing, undercoating, grime, lots of oil and grease. How do you prep for chassis black? And how do you dispose of the residue

Ultrasonic cleaners. Expensive for the DIYer, but my tiny 3gallon unit is the best thing I have ever bought for my shop. It will clean things like carburettors like you can't believe. It will remove

I'm in a rural area. I used a screw driver, followed by gasoline and a stiff mineral spirits and a paint brush, followed by bead blasting. Probably would not have been appropriate inside the city lim
