What do you use to clean an intake manifold?
I am going to sell my Weiand instake finally. It has been on my shelf for some time and needs to be sprayed down with something.
What can I use?
I also painted it black with high temp black paint (to make it look stock). I guess I dont care if the paint comes off, but what do you guys suggest? Brake Cleaner? Too Strong for aluminum?99 T/A M6

Do you need to clean the inside or outside?
If inside: Carb and Choke cleaner...
If outside: Maybe just a good engine degreaser...

Bare in mind its off the car. Water wont cause it to rust?
If I spray degreaser on it, I will have to rinse it...
