degreasing motor
I'm still rebuilding my motor but I used a can of Gunk degreaser and I still have too much grease on the motor. Any ideas how to clean the motor and compartment clean?

The Gunk & most degreasers will usually work better on a hot engine...You might have to work with a stronger degreaser if the engine is going to be cold until your done. Good luck/skill!

With the pieces of the motor apart, soak them in laquer (SP?) thinner. Get a dishwashing brush and brush away. Should be sparkly clean afterwards
