I usually start taking thick grease and dirt off with a chisel (or putty knife) and wire brush. Then I use a paint stripper (with rubber gloves, wire brush, respirator, safety goggles) to remove the rest. I clean the residue off with a small wire wheel, then rub the surface down with lacquer thinner to get it clean and dry. The best cleaner I've used, especially for really greasy parts, small parts, bearings, etc. is starter fluid. I get the cheapest stuff I can find. The gunk falls right off of it, and the part dries quickly. I used about two cases of the stuff per tractor, and it's great. Watch out - it's very flammable and the fumes are strong.
