There's a new tool in the shop and it does wonders on old dirty car parts. Yeah! Check out these rocker arm stand, fuel pump, and oil filler cannister for my Porsche 911 restoration project. Ultrasonic cleaner to the rescue!
Some parts are easier to clean than others for sure. Baked on carbon deposits are really tough, but the right chemical makes a world of difference.
If you restore classic cars, then you need this tool!

Just a little over 20 years ago, I owned a jewelry store where I specialized in custom design, jewelry repair, and hating people. I used an ultrasonic cleaner to the jewelry before and after repair and for final cleaning for custom pieces. I wish that I still had it to clean auto parts now. It is impressive how well they work. The crazy thing is - when purchased from a jewelry supplier they cost several times more.

@GarageTimeAutoResto 2 года назад

Hating people, ha ha that made me laugh. I clean my wife's jewelry in my cleaner too. She puts her gems in a spice jar with a jewelry cleaner and tell her not to look at the mucky water as I drop it in. 15 minutes later everything is magically sparkly!

When I was doing NDT at GE Power Systems Airfoils I snuck the oil cooler from either my 912 or 914 - I don’t remember which - and gave it several runs ours which were of about 40 gallon capacity. It was fun to watch the black liquid come out. Think I’m going to buy a 30 liter one like yours and clean some of the gears and pinions that I do MT on. I’m tired of spending so much time cleaning.

@paule.maurice1521 Год назад

Tip ... Soak carburators in Vinegar for a few hours . Than clean in Ultrasonic using plain water . Dry with Heat Gun . Cleaners leave a corrosive residue . Vinegar loosens the bond dirt has on metal

@GarageTimeAutoResto Год назад

Thanks! Straight vinegar? Or diluted?

@walterkucharski4790 3 года назад

For carbs Gunk soaking cleaner works. For carbon use oven cleaner. The way I cook there's plenty of carbon residue! Also use the heat if the solvents are non flammable ( I do. but that's me). Heat accelerates any chemical reaction

@GarageTimeAutoResto 3 года назад

Thanks for all the advice. Great comments from all❤️

@Troys221 2 года назад

Everyone's fascinated at the ultrasonic clearer, but it was the Berryman cleaner that actually cleaned the part. I use the stronger Berryman (part # 0901) cleaner.

@GarageTimeAutoResto 2 года назад

Berrymans is the best for carbon build up. Nothing else even touches it.

@ultraali453 2 года назад

You're right, it depends on the cleaner you put in the ultrasonic cleaner. Nice video

@GarageTimeAutoResto 2 года назад

Thx, what cleaning agent is your favorite?

@ultraali453 2 года назад

@@GarageTimeAutoResto So far, I haven't tried as many as you have. However, judging from the RU-vid videos I've seen so far, the results can vary significantly based on the cleaning liquid being used. Thank you for making this knowledge available to a global audience. I'm from Pakistan 👍

@harryballz6358 6 месяцев назад

Rust rarely stops, best to use sealer like fuel tanks to coat tanks interiors. Use an acid cleaners first to etch the inside, this helps tank sealer stay on better. Radiator shops will boil tanks out like old Radiators, then they'll seal it fwiw.

@GarageTimeAutoResto 6 месяцев назад

My fear is that if that coating flakes off the engine bearings will starve for oil. The oil pump screen may get clogged or debris might go right in to the oil pump. Have been to a radiator shop lately? They aren't what they used to be, no more hot tanking.

@1ocean515 3 года назад

Ultrasonic cleaners are great. My experience is to clean and degrease as reasonable as possible before putting in the tank. Keeps the solution effective longer. I’ve left the solution in the tank, adding cleaner and water as needed. When the solution gets really dirty, Idrain and “recharge”. It is pretty awesome to pull parts out and see how clean they are. Also, the heat function works really well. Never had an issue, even when the directions say room temp. I figure that is marketing not wanting to scare buyers who don’t have a ready means to heat the solution.

@GarageTimeAutoResto 3 года назад

Thanks for the tips👍 What cleaners do you use and like? I have some rare 356 carbs that I need to clean without damage. They are currently frozen shut.

@1ocean515 3 года назад

@@GarageTimeAutoResto I use similar materials, purple power, etc.. I raise the heat to 110 and above, depending on the material being cleaned. I tend to take the gentle approach so I use a fairly low dilution (3-5%) and then adjust depending on results. Given the value of the carbs you’re talking about, do some more experimenting with parts of similar material. Time and temperature is better than stronger solution.

@davidcalkins8087 3 года назад

Love my ultrasonic cleaner. If I have something that is really funky I will put it in a ziplock bag with my simple green & water and put that in my tank with clean solution

@GarageTimeAutoResto 3 года назад

I tried a ziplock bag and the part wore a hole in it

@JoeEngineer 3 года назад

That intial cloud of dirt coming off the part when you first turn it on is so satisfying.

@carlosherrera7822 2 года назад

Excellent video and tips as usual Tom! I.... need to thortoughly clean the Aluminium brake drums of my 356A project (they look beyond repair but let's see)...Do you think that the size of that machine's tank could fit them? even if I will need to do several baths to rotate them...it is ok. Cheers!

@GarageTimeAutoResto 2 года назад

I have a 10 L ultrasonic tank and a brake drum will only partially fit. Also the bigger the part the more power you need. I also have a few of these to clean up. Perhaps I'll make a video. My strategy would be degreaser, electrolysis, ultrasonic and then aluminum wheel cleaner. Lots of brushing and hand scraping too. Many people resort to blasting which is also good, but changes the original texture in my opinion.

@andreasvenator 3 года назад

Thanks for this proof of concept video. Very helpful, Tom. I noticed an ad from a Registry member a couple of months ago who was looking for a new cam sprocket wheel...seems he put the sprocket wheel into some carb cleaner and ruined the sprocket...not being a metallurgist I can´t figure out why that experiment went that awry. Any ideas?

@GarageTimeAutoResto 3 года назад

Thanks for watching. I'm really loving this cleaner. My guess is that cam gear has some magnesium in it which is highly reactive. Even super clean is not recommended for aluminum for long periods of time and needs to be neutralized with water. I'm not a chemist either, but I've seen many things ruined. Mostly with electroplating.

@Bikeaddict4235 7 месяцев назад

I spent days attempting to clean my oil filler tank which was rusty like yours. I tried everything except an ultrasonic including evaporust. I ended up paying a lot of money for another second hand tank which was supposedly “restored “ After using the same process I deemed the latest one usable as you did. Has I been able to weld I would have cut the thing in half in order to work inside it then welded it back together. It’s a shame no one is prepared to make one of these from Aluminium

@GarageTimeAutoResto 7 месяцев назад

Aluminum would be a much better choice. It's tough to clean because it's a mix of carbon of rust. Berrymans first and evaporust second is probably the way to go. Or a few times back and forth.

@johncooper4637 Год назад

One: when Evaporust was demoing their product they heated the tank with an immersion heater. Two: Evaporust is just for rust, not dirt or baked on carbon. Super Clean might have done the job if you had left in there longer and heated it up. Another video I saw the guy heated 14 liters of water and 32 ounces of Super Clean to 175 degrees and his parts came out clean.

@GarageTimeAutoResto Год назад

@scottcates Год назад

Super nice work to show what works and what doesn't. It was good to see that the effectiveness really is based on the type of dirt/grime/whatnot that one wants to remove from the work piece and then matching that to a corresponding cleaning liquid. Thanks again. Also, I wouldn't be against baking some parts at 500 degrees F to burn off contaminants, either.

How would you go about cleaning magnesium rust off magnesium alloy car parts?

@GarageTimeAutoResto 3 года назад

Well magnesium is highly reactive, so I would probably just use soap and water in the ultrasonic cleaner. You will probably need a stainless or nylon brush to work the tough areas.

@caseybyington7197 3 года назад

I bought one of these little babies and I only wish I had one big enough to put a whole freaking car in there. I love mine. I use it on anything I can fit in it but I use it mostly for automatic transmission valve bodies and it is unreal. A lot of people have run stop leak and crap through them and you cannot get that crap off with a brush. It just moves it around and will not come off. I use tap water and Oil Eater. One thing....MAKE SURE YOU IMMEDIATELY DRY EVERY LITTLE PIECE. I use a hairdryer. Tap water usually has a tiny bit of chlorine in it and it will rust like crazy if you don't. On aluminum the rust will look like calcium scaling at first.

I have a similar ultra-sonic cleaner. I find the cleaning power, as you have shown here, very minimal. They are the most OVERRATED cleaning devices ever in my opinion. After 40 mins the dirt on engine parts has only SLIGHTLY loosened but I end up using wire brushes with paraffin then finish with Brillo pads to get the thing really clean...NO, my cleaner IS working normally ...I have done Aluminium shredding tests and it shows the thing is working strongly but as said ultrasonic cleaning is only of any use if the item is just slightly dirty...most engine parts are very dirty, and the cleaners fail to clean them much even after a very extended session. The only really effective cleaning system is Aqua/vapour blasting or bead blasting on surfaces that are not as delicate. Reply BOOT BOOT 3 years ago

@GarageTimeAutoResto Год назад

I agree, it's not that aggressive for heavy dirt. I usually hit really dirty stuff with a parts washer, then it goes in the ultrasonic. It does a good job on blind or hard to reach areas. All car stuff requires effort, to be honest.
