Even tho the cylinders had plugs in them, they had leaked a full covering of red oil all over the outside. This then turned to goo... So now I have to clean them...... BUT. Nothing seems to touch or remove the goo except acetone or the like. This strong of cleaner also removes the ink on the manufacture decal on the side. So, any good ideas for how to clean these up? Maybe I should just put some more oil on them and maybe it will soften up the old goo? Perhaps that will leave the decal alone as well, and then I can just wipe them off? Any thoughts? Alan - headed to try the new oil on old trick... Now if I only had some red fluid... It's at the hanger :(
