Re: Degreaser
I used to take heads to the machine shop for a dip in the hot tank. They gave me a reasonable price, and it was worth it considering the time it took for me to put them in the parts washer here. Then I started using the torch. That was fun. lol

The original chain has a different link there so that you know. Replacement chains from the store dont.) I t...
