Thanks for the advice. I had a small parts washer from Harbor Freight (3.5
gal.) that I used when I freshened my Midget. The plastic pump broke and a
replacement costs as much as a new washer so I threw it away. Now I have a
big garage so I want a 20 gallon washer.
I was thinking of trying Simple Green in it. I guess it would have to be
diluted a bit. Has anyone tried it? I'm sure it won't damage the pump and
it smells purdy! Other than that, I may check into Safety Kleen products,
which will be more expensive.
