Re: How to clean pistons?
just pick up a new set of pistons from EC automotive. a brand new set for me only cost $160 for my car, probably around the same for yours. and another $10 per piston to change the rods over. and theyll get you oversized pistons or whatever your engine needs along with new rings and such. then again, doing that is basically a rebuild anyways. seafoam FTMFW
