I have been scrubbing for days at the block, and its pretty clean now. I was just wondering would it be ok to put the block into the dishwasher and wash it a couple of times. I want it sparkling clean with the citrus scent. Should I use Jet Wash for no streaks



but, seriously, would it be ok to pop it in the dishwasher?

 

I'm sure those racks can hold the weight of a motor.

What are you afraid of, the block getting wet?

 

Your signature links just cost me 3 minutes of my life. Screw you.

Put your head in the dishwasher.

 

You simply MUST take a picture of this if you do it...

 

I'd fill up the detergent thingy with gojo. Cuts through the grime and gives you that all important citrus scent. It appears you already wash neighborhood kids in there so why not?

BTW. i'm sick of all these rich *** people showing off their appliances! just because I don't have a dishwasher (or girlfriend anymore ) you don't have show off! Why don't you show pics of the bread maker you mix Bondo in.....man, other peoples rich kids

 

uhhhh......

just use orange citrus cleaner, by stoner. It will give you the smell and is probably 10x the cleaning power

Now THAT I'd like to see.

 

yes you can dishwash it if you can support the block inside somehow.

it actually works quite well.

 

--i almost was going to say air dry it off after so it wouldn't rust. LOL

i guess you would have to do that to the cylinders and main caps tho. hehe

 

have a machine shop vat the block for you.

 

well i was just going to take out all the racks and put it in there with palmolive dishwashing liquid, it works great, thanx to rtype11 for that suggestion.

ok i'll take pics dont worry.

 

i put my head in a bucket of carb cleaner from napa and that thing came out looking brand new, and also it burns the **** outta your hands so you know its strong.

 

I don't know if you'll want to wash dishes in the dishwasher after you've washed your block in it.

Here's an idea: clean it out.

Glad to see that I am not along in this feeling...

 

I cant find the dishwasher manual, which option should I use?

 

Pot scrubbing cycle...for that deep and dirty grime.

 

Use the engine block washing option.

Nice Photoshop!

Hahaha Lol... Nice one.

 

is this for real or I'm dreaming???

this thread is going sooooooo nowhere!

 

well if this is for real i dont think the bottom part that turns will be abble to turn with the motor in, unless you are going to put it on the rack. seriously if you do this you have to take pics.

i hope you havn't already tossed in some palmolive or dawn... when that **** heats up and gets wet in a dish washer you're in for a bubble fest in your kitchen...

biggest mistake ever... my parents were outa town and before they came back i had to clean the house and "power wash" the dishes. I used about the size of a quarter of dawn in the dishwasher. i thoguht i was at an ibiza foam night club... I cleaned it up before anyone noticed though... damn close call

holy crap

****, i put way too much palmolive in its flooded and bubbles everywhere, so i have restarted it now. yahoo isnt letting me upload at this time, will do it later. i put it on a rack, the revolving thing wasnt moving the other way. lets see what happens.
