Bad advise Joe ?, I said drop the wheel and soak the chain, that is the
right way , sure there are lots of safer solvents, but you use alot and
gas is cheap.

Mineral spirits is onlt $3 a gallon. Filter the dirt out with a paint or
coffee filter and pour it back into the can for next time. Mineral spirits
will not burn like gasoline will.
