Well, you did do something to the engine and you wanted help to undo the damage. As for your name calling when you used 'chemical freaks', that is out of line. Maybe you should have been a little bit of a chemical freak yourself before you ruined your engine with something like oven cleaner. Sheesh.
edited to add: If it were my engine and it looked that bad I guess I would toss it too.
blwblw,
This was way out of line and uncalled for. First of all, one of Webster's definitions of the word freak is "a person with a great enthusiasm or liking for a particular subject, interest, or activity (a baseball freak, etc.). That is exactly what I had in mind when I used the word. I'm glad Mr. Robison and most of the other readers saw it that way too.
As for my engine, it still runs good and looks much cleaner now. No need to trash it as some of you suggested. IMO, there's no need for painting or extra polishing, it will be well hidden inside my GP Gene Soucy Extra's beautiful red cowl.
