I want to replace my valve lifters and I need to clean my camshaft cap mating surfaces before adding the new RTV and putting everything back together again. My problem is how I can clean the old RTV materials without letting them enter oil channels while cleaning and scraping. I don't want to clog oil galleries and probably oil pump pick-up tube and cause lubrication issues. It is almost impossible to cover all the channels and galleries before doing the cleaning.

@Messergebnis-liebhaber yes it is hard, usually I try and plug what I can with paper towel. Depending on the area sometimes rinse with brake clean and compressed air.

@chaskacox-potter3217
@chaskacox-potter3217 24 дня назад
the reason you can run leaner on ethanol is because of how the Bosch O2 sensor calculates the AFR. It actually calculates in lambda, and on your configuration of the holley software you likely have your base fuel set as pump gas not e85, if the e85 base fuel was selected the lambda would convert to an e85 AFR instead of a gas AFR. ie the actual stoich afr of e85 is 9.8 or so but that would read as 1.00 lambda. so it reads in your afr table as a leaner value even though it is still a richer value than what it would be on gas. you don't need to know all this which is awesome but i think it is helpful and cool to know and understand.

@henrysmith625 how thick is the material? Torch needs to be very close to metal and to start a puddle on 1/8 aluminum may take you 5 seconds. The cleaning action will clean first and then you'll see a puddle start to form. No idea on up or down slope I'm not fancy like that. If you've got the pedal current is adjusted on the pedal

** side note this was all purchased 2020, except the tig** I have MIG 250, CUT 40, and just finished buying one of these about a week ago..... the MIG 250 has been great, only thing I"d consider is upgrading the torch as when going too long parts of it start to melt a bit(although cheap to replaceable parts); there was some issue when I ordered it relating to my contact info and they amazoned me my unit(despite being bought off aliexpress) and than later insisted on sending me a wire role as it was part of the original listing....... the CUT 40 came with high frequency start, few people on youtube suggest hf only works on clean stuff but haven't had issues going through paint:P..... I don't know when I will get to use the Tig as I have to get argon first(expensive, but the unit itself was currently cheapest I"ve seen up till now)..... up to now definitely like hitbox:D

I couldn't find CRCs "Gasket Kleen" (with a K lol) anywhere not even a Google search lol. Eventually I found it under google images on Canadian Amazon and 1 website. I can't add stuff to my cart on American Amazon from Canadian Amazon, it wants me to sign in on Canadian Amazon web pages but I haven't tried to. I was able to find CRCs "Gasket Remover" in a red can like the "Gasket Kleen" and some green can. That stuff looked like it worked out phenomenal that's why I was trying to get my hands on it lol plus I'm prolly about to resurface blocks and heads. I'll prolly grab the CRC Gasket Remover maybe it's the same thing although I think the Remover is cheaper but that green can I was talking about might be about the same price. Hopefully whatever I get works out as good. Good vid 👍. Hey fill those valve chambers with water to see if any leaks out past the valves, that'll tell u if you need to lap the valves but you prolly know this already lol.
