im not sure, but idk if there is anything you can do to get it off. Maybe some, but not all

to do it right. strip the engine down to the block. send it to a machine shop, have then bead blast and cook it. they come out brand new!

 

[sohclubkid]

well... since its aluminum, it wont rust.

 

[musezik]

if i strip everything off the engine. how much do you think they will charge to do all that and put it back together.

Do not get that s**t on your plastic parts or they will turn to goop, and don't let it in the runners or spark plug tubes.

Oh dear god im sorry to see that happen in 1st place. i wondr who thought of painting the block yellow.. so badly?

Yea i'd suggest stripping what u can, and getting it sent to a machine shop to be 'fixed'

at your local autoparts store.

i'm guessing you didn't pait it. but i mean do you really think everyone on the road is gonna see your yellow block and yellow head? you might as well spend the extra money on something else for right now other than taking it apart and painting it . (because from the looks of it, you will have someone do it for you.)

[Jimmy2times]

nice^^^

but seriously, i'd just take it apart and use aircraft stripper, but like that one guys said, don't get it on ur plastic pieces.

look at it as a way to learn to how to properly disassemble and reassemble ur engine.

just my .02
