All,
I am fixing up an Oliver 550 Gas and am refurbishing the air cleaner. It has not been serviced in quite a while. The manual says to clean the "steel wool" by soaking in solvent, if it gets too dirty. Mine is very filthy with dirt and grease. What kind of solvent should I use? Thanks for your help.
Kevin R.

Most everybody just calls it "solvent"- proper name is mineral spirits, I think- If you go to your local gas and diesel supplier and ask for "solvent- for parts washing" you should get the right thing.
