I'm getting ready to put my Ranger's 4.0L back together after doing an upper engine rebuild. After organizing the parts in the corner of the garage, I noticed how dirty they are. I keep my truck and motor spotless, so this obviously annoyed me. I am wondering if there is a secret method to clean the aluminum parts until they look new again. I was thinking of soaking them in the solvent tank at work and scrubbing the crap out of them until they came clean, but if you guys have any other method that work better, I would be glad to hear it. Also, is cleaning the alternator with the same method "safe" for it? Thanks everyone!
