Vanagon Alternator Cleanup
Posted: Sat Feb 10, 2007 12:42 pm
My engine has taken an oil bath. I am tracking down an oil leak (originally thought it was oil cooler but am now thinking main bearing, aarghh!)
The alternator has been coated with oil and I would like to clean it. Any suggestions as to the best way.
Must I disassemble? Spray electric parts cleaner? Air? Nanobots?
Here are some pix though they are not great.

P.S. The engine is sitting on a seweet ATV stand in the garage (Thanks Westy78) and I am stripping it down to clean it off thoroughly. I can post some more pics and just might if I can't figure out what is leaking.
