<VV> Teardown III

[Stephen Upham]

OK, here goes.  I've always maintained the theory that if you want five 
different ways to work on a particular system on your Corvair, ask two 
owners. ggg

I was in the market to buy an air compressor mainly to dry the parts 
off from the teardown after cleaning them as I have it on very good 
advise that parts should be cleaned at least twice using 409 or Simple 
Green and a parts brush and rinsing (I assumed that meant with water).

I suppose it would be better to use a parts washer and solvent which I 
don't have.  But if that is the only way to get it done . . .

I need to get these parts CLEAN from the iron and bearing debris left 
over from the meltdown.  I DO NOT want to have to take the engine apart 
again for this problem.  This will be the second time that I have 
cleaned it.  I used carb cleaner and shop rags last time.

Is there a SUREFIRE method that can be employed to remove the debris 
that doesn't require the use of an air compressor or water that could 
be performed in a plastic bin bucket (about 20 gallon, what I have on 
hand).

If I could apply another method and achieve the DESIRED results, then I 
could bid my time on purchasing the compressor, which I'm sure I need, 
in order to get a better deal AND get this engine put back together 
WHILE I'm waiting.
