Hey I have been meaning to ask. How did you de-carbonized the rotors? What did you use?

Thanks

I highly doubt it. It also has cylinder lubricant in it also I sprayed it on some rubber and card board and let it sit for a few days and did not damage them so I think it's ok

There is an SA in the local junk yard. I've picked it pretty clean but if the car is still their next time I'm out I'll pocket it for you.

Man... No luck, that hard line is MINE! I need it for my red car, and this car doesn't have a sunroof.

Stuff under the dash might happen. Be warned this is a hurricane car.
