Parts should fit snugly. They should be reasonably clean but this isn't

I've always used starting ether for the final cleaning as the
residue from other stuph can bite you back.

Comments?


Brake-Kleen isn't supposed to leave a residue. I use it for final
cleaning of bearings after gross cleaning with varsol and acetone,
which do leave residues.
