When the mouse is away, the rat will play!!

I'll admit I've used the dishwasher to clean carburettor bodys before, but not engine internals. You either have balls the size of g****fruit or you're just plain old crazy !

 

I did have to get out the cleaner to clean the gray scuff marks off the white porcilin but that's a regular job around here anyway. It did have a funky aroma while it was steam cleaning those M/T's though...lol

 

OK, its half way done and looks sparkling clean. But I think that I will have to pull everything out and soak in oil as everything is dry between cycles and some parts have a bit of surface rust forming!! Man that dishwasher soap must be costic!!

 

So you think Gas residue is better than engine residue? Hey it all boils down to getting parts clean and the dishwasher staying clean. I think that the danger is getting caught by the ol lady!!! LOL!
Yes I have balls and am crazy, but I wouldn't change anything for the world. I'd rather be crazy than a normal nutcase!! LOL!! I have to go!! I crack myself up!!

 

Your logic is just as ridiculous on this subject as the last one...have fun getting cancer...lazy kids...jeez...

 

ooooooooh I'm telling your wife!

 

If it's so safe, why do you have to worry about getting caught? It shouldn't be a problem explaining how dish soap is more harmful to her than diesel and engine gunk...

 

Wife finds out..it'll be awhile before he gets a little "blow by"..

 

Aw lighten up...we're all gonna die someday...and this little dishwashing trick isn't hurting anyone.....Now if it was my wife's c***erole that was gettin washed off the plates.....then he'd have something to worry about!! HAHa

 

wow what a downer.. Nice job on the low-tech Rabid...

 

What parts getting cleaned in the kitchen?








Just as good as new!!!!!
Oh and no smell at all even when the dishwasher has been closed for a while and opened back up. It actually looks cleaner inside than it has for years!!! I may even get an attaboy for cleaning the dish washer!! LOL!!!

 

..throw in a dryer sheet...but then she'll think you're pounding the lettuce..

 

OH MY GOD!!! You are paranoid!!! Maybe you ought to get on the smokers and everyone on this site for running cars without catalytic converters, and changing oil without gloves, or pumping gas without gloves, or wearing a respirator when filling your car or drinking water without filtering it or barbecuing food as it has carcinogens in it!!! Man, wash a few halfway clean parts in the dishwasher once and my whole family is going to die of cancer? Oh an by the way, I'm a member of AARP and have survived lead painted cribs, second hand smoke, washing parts with gasoline, pumping good old leaded gas, and a ton of other things and now I am about to die of cancer from washing a few parts in the dish washer!! LOL!!! You crack me up!!
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOl!!!

Also I'm very far from lazy and I'll take the "kid" as a compliment "Son"!!

 

ever ask a woman if you can clean greasy engine parts in her dishwasher? they get touchy about their kitchen appliances, the dangerous part is her catching him doing it.

 

actually the oil thing no one knew about until recently, a couple of bucks on rubber gloves changing it is a cheap investment, know someone personally who changed oil for 40 years they just amputated 4 of his fingers from cancer. cheap insurance. don't think occasionally changing it will hurt you, but if you change it all the time, well better be a little bit safer. the clean oil is fine,it's the stuff suspended in the dirty oil that gets ya

 

Now here is a guy that knows why you dont want to get caught!! I have been married to my wonderful wife for 28 years and usually I will get caught doing this kind of stuff!! I don't know how she finds out but she does. She cools down pretty quick which is why I'm still alive!! LOL!

 

The parts look good. I need to do this soon with some of my bike parts.

Haha relax everybody, there is nothing wrong with it, it isn't as unsafe as some of you may believe. This is nothing new, plenty of people do this without dying. Besides, health is overrated anyway.
Health is only the slowest rate at which you can die.

 

I did a complete 650 Triumph engine this way once; came out so clean I was amazed! The reason you don't do this when the "dignificant other" is not around is because they cannot think logically. I have had two wives and now a long time girlfriend; all three of them insisted on having towels in he bathroom that I was forbidden to use.

 

Helpful Hint - Wire wheels, are very well cleaned that way, you have to remove the top rack though. (may not work in all brands of dishwasher)

 

HAHAHA! im with ya. Too many folk are paranoid these days.

I used my girlfriends dishwasher to clean the carb on my buick one time.

Worked great!

 

my girlfriend's getting ready to move in so maybe i should wash my parts before she does!!! what she don't know won't hurt her

 

I feel really blessed here, i have a great wife who lets me clean greasy parts in the bathtub, keep car parts all over the house, i mean everywhere, and she loves to fish!! I had an ex one time who freaked about me cleaning parts in the dishwasher,i got every single part thrown at me.

 

I think I would rather have cleaned parts in the neighbor's dishwasher while they were out of town.

The EPA police are coming to get you and will confi****e your DW and parts!

 

The pistons would make cool ice cream scoops .....VERY COOL

Great IDEA...!

 

My wife is the dish washer at our house.


I wonder if I could take some connecting rods home tonight......


Should she wash them before or after the dinner dishes?!?!

 

Maybe he should have put them in the oven on self clean before the dishwasher, to burn off the diesel.

 

My friend try washing his wire wheel hubcaps in his dishwasher,Boy what a mess....
I think the key is a prewash by hand before putting them in....They did look good though....LOL

Steve

 

exactly get the heavy stuff off first

 

Man is that some funny **** right there,man my wife would fricken kill my ***!!!!
