IPA cleaner for Fuel Pump
« on: October 25, 2011, 07:06:24 pm »
What cleaner and where from have people used when stripping their fuel pumps?

Heard IPA though can't find any shops selling it.

Also know detailers use this when machine polishing (I never have).

Thanks

Not sure if it's suitable for the purpose but IPA can be bough from maplins in litre tin can, or online from amazon and ebay. Might need to be diluted down for the purpose.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

You may already have them John but here is the guide. It says non chlorinated cleaner.

Saw someone used IPA before though Non Chlorinated Cleaner appear to be like rocking horse poo...

Having a nightmare finding any.
