I was approved for an Amazon Influencer account which allows KZbinrs like myself, and other creators to earn a small commission from sales generated from people first clicking on my Amazon link, and then buying anything from Amazon. This doesn't cost you a penny as Amazon compensates the creators for driving traffic and sales to the site. So even if you don't buy the product or tool that I link in the video description box, you are still supporting the channel by shopping on Amazon after you clicked through any of my links. Each video will have either specific links to things I use or talk about in the video, or you will see my general LegitStreetCars Amazon link like this. www.amazon.com/shop/legitstre...

I use Oil Eater in my parts washer as well. It works phenomenal on oil, but the one caveat I've found is that it doesn't work quite as well on caked-on grime. What I end up doing is spraying grungy parts about 5 minutes beforehand with some strong degreaser, and then I pop them in the washer and finish cleaning them up. Seriously though, Oil Eater works wonders when you have to clean something like the engine block in-situ after fixing a huge oil leak, everything comes out bone dry.

[@vt2704]

Sweet review. I must agree that customer service is damn near everything. Just bought a part for my bike mainly because I got a 10% discount along with great customer service. Could not agree more.

[@Lrules364]

Thanks for posting this. Im currently replacing a set of head gaskets on my truck, and this would be perfect to clean most of my old engine parts up while I have it off. At least I know this is relatively cheap, which is good for me.

[@DeusVolo]

Alex! Please include a link for those dish washing gloves those are the bomb! Good "clean" to the point review. Thanks for getting us a discount code!

[@alltheboostproductions7740]

Such a nice thing to have! Assembling dirty parts is so 2001

[@ja.935g67]

As always thanks for sharing Alex!

[@alkalineph9446]

I saw this item on eBay and KZbind it. Glad I did. I’ll check that site out after your review. Thank You!

[@johnvukojevich5722]

if you add a heater its a lot better use the one for a electrical water heater element for your home on a 110 VOLTS makes the grease fall off add a stat and it will governor itself

[@bedlamite42]

Looks like the exact same parts washer that Harbor Freight has for $99, and has coupons available for $75-79.

[@mgoody8782]

Harbor freight parts washer 👍

[@150flivver]

harbor freight coupon doesn't apply to many items.

[@c0mputer]

Yup,same exact one. Although I will say that diffeee the not companies that have this at a higher price point will many times pay more for the manufacture to do better QC. So for example, the harbor freight one is the same but the tolerances and fit and finish might not be as good. That being said, I’m buying the harbor freight one.

[@freeman8000]

My whole garage is full of harbor freight tools... I'm not a professional mechanic, but I do literally everything in my dungeon of a garage. Fabrication and all.

[@ja.935g67]

I hope you have an awesome weekend and how about a Lisle 14000 Parts cleaning brush from Amazon to add to your Arsenal! I have it it's awesome! Greenies work great too!

[@Shwalker07]

Looks good. Just missing a adjustable flow knob for the solvent.

[@ChunkyChipz]

I use Spray Nine 5 Gal. It's $45 with free shipping. plus the left over clean my kitchen stove.

[@nicke2307]

i have the same one!! hahaha. i use biodegradeable cleaner from harborfreight

[@connersnow298]

Awesome vid and edits and filming and parts washer

[@vettepwr23]

Hi Alex. I just came across this video of yours. It looks like this part is no longer available. Can you recommend another one? Also, what light do you recommend for working under the engine bay? Thanks!

[@klwthe3rd]

Not to burst your bubble but I went to their website and it appears they are giving 15% to everyone on anything anyhow for memorial day. I mean that really should have giving your channels subscribers a uniquely better deal than everyone else.

[@LegitStreetCars]

Kenneth White Hey Ken, did you click into the site through my link? If so it automatically applies the 15% off

[@annapimento9471]

just giving him 15% to the guy... for commisson.

[@joemendez197]

Glad you made the international hand gesture for using the phone, otherwise i would have never known. :thumbsup

[@steezobaby]

thanks for the code

[@stopthephilosophicalzombie9017]

Do they make ultrasonic parts washers?

[@DiscoFang]

Alex, What is the best solvent for modern euro diesel engine intake manifolds? I cleaned mine by hand with a revolving sequence of diesel, oil & grease spray, brake clean & detergent. Alternately scrubbing & soaking. Couldn't stop thinking that simply leaving it in a parts washer for a few days would have been so much easier & more effective.

[@LegitStreetCars]

For metal intakes, I think soaking in something like diesel is ok. For plastic, however, you need to use something more gentle like the oil eater. I wouldn't let it soak if it's plastic. Some diesel intakes can get very caked up so scrubbing is sometimes inevitable.

[@roccosvan]

What's up from Vancity!

[@viisteist1363]

where do u put the old and oily used solution?

[@agri-lifeorganicfarm2466]

Is it a 20 gal parts cleaner? What are the dimensions?

[@bmarie8965]

How do these drain?

[@juancamilocardonamarin9483]

you most use B'laster Parts Washer Solvent it has been developed to outperform the usual mineral spirit based solvents most often found in re-circulating parts washers. It safely and quickly removes oil, grease and grime from metals, most plastics and painted surfaces. It leaves no residue making it perfect for parts that will be painted. Features Cuts Through Cutting Oil, Motor Oils & Grease Leaves Parts Residue Free High Flashpoint Formula 145°F Safe for Use on All Metals, Most Plastics & Painted Surfaces

[@mrfish9997]

Will it clean a carburetor?

[@MrSamadolfo]

Neato! it looks very similar to a Safety Kleen unit, what kind of solvents can you use? For something really nasty I guess you can have a separate little tub full of diesel and let its soak the whole week! 😃🚙🚗

[@LegitStreetCars]

They have their specs on the site although they recommended mineral spirits. I've had people use diesel fuel in these cheaper units as well.

[@MrSamadolfo]

Yup, Diesel is great, I always keep a Gallon around at all times heehee! 😍🚲🛵🚚

[@shanescarlife]

How about using varsol? I never found that to be too harsh when i was washing parts

[@LegitStreetCars]

I've never used that but I'm sure it would work great.

[@billpeiman8973]

Used in factories for decades; strong smell though.

[@redrush40]

After you wash metal parts in this, and take them out to dry... how do you stop “flash rusting”

[@deathatthefeast5326]

rub your parts down with transmission fluid of motor oil. light coating will prevent this.

[@PauloMatias]

No longer on the website? also where does the water drain?

[@user-dn6qy1ou1f]

Drains out the bottom. Just get it from harbor freight. With a 20% off coupon, it's $80

[@rcsoundn1]

Link fail? Doesnt come up on their site. And is this the same as the HF one??

[@user-dn6qy1ou1f]

Same as harbor freight, Lowe's, home Depot, northern tools

[@bobc.5698]

Same as harbor freight. The hinge is in a different place.

[@Djsoulhart]

does it work with laqour thinner ?

[@ralphgregory7616]

NO !!!!

[@GIGABACHI]

Discount Ramps is the shit, I have bought from them before and their customer service is great. I ordered some motorcycle stands, one was missing some steering head adapters and they mailed those to me right away. I had a similar parts washer, really handy tool to own if you have real use for it and the space. Thanks for the advice on what to use as the cleaning solution, I had diesel in mine, the one at work had mineral spirit(the best).

[@alireal1552]

Hello brother Is it possible to use gasoline? I hope to reply from you

[@user-dn6qy1ou1f]

You could...but I personally wouldn't

[@agri-lifeorganicfarm2466]

This parts washer is exactly like the Harbor Freight washer for $109.00

[@WeBreakCars1]

I picked up the exact same one at harbor freight for $101 with a 1 year warranty but it's not black lol

[@alireal1552]

Hi dear , Can I use gasoline?

[@ralphgregory7616]

Once 😉

[@vanillagoose4444]

Geez that filter was falling apart ! also why are your parts sitting in the fluid ? My workshop cleaner is dry with a 75litre drum under it ! the degreaser gets pumped up to the part then when your finished you can switch it off and just let the parts drip dry , not good this be as well with a bucket and brush ffs

[@axtra92]

Are you stupid?

[@smithraymond09029]

I'm certainly not a "tree hugger" but where does one dispose of the used fluid?

[@Lrules364]

Your neighbors yard is a perfect location to chuck the old fluid.

[@Shwalker07]

In a old container.

[@mcearl8073]

It’s mostly water. Let it evaporate and you’ll have a lot less to deal with.

[@mutawi3i]

Man, i think Mercedes-Benz should have made u Vice president while u were working there.... Now, they will lose money cuz u thought me to do repairs. Greetz

[@calimesacox]

Great info commercial.

[@LegitStreetCars]

Thanks!

[@hustlerkc11]

Its the same unit harbor freight sells... identical.

[@DiscoFang]

Mainly 'cause it was black. Yep. We don't like to admit to ourselves but how often tool choices are made on look & colour.

[@agentx250]

Only if quality is comparable. DeWalt, Bosch, and Milwaukee are all about equal but I buy DeWalt because their tools match what I already have. I think the only tools I wouldn't buy because of their color is Ryobi, because I think that shade of green is just annoying.

[@adalbertoavelar9040]

Is this an innuendo? Jk, just immature, this is a great video, thanks for making it and I'll be getting one for my father in law!

[@thebavariancircle5105]

Promo code does not work....

[@russellpeterson7548]

Don't get me wrong love your channel and I get it (sponsors)... but you can get the same parts washer from HF and use one of their 20% off coupons. So, that one lists for 99.99, with 20% off that's $80... so, yeah. OK... not exactly the same. The HF one says Central Machinery on it and its blue and red. Got me there.

[@hobman]

Harbor Freight 20% off coupons state "Central Machinery" not included in discount.....so...

[@RobertCiampa9112]

And you were able to get it for free

[@scottstahl7266]

You might want to put in less fluid. Don't submerse your main tray.

[@csebastian71]

Let me know when you’re ready for another bucket of Oil Eater. We’ll get your next bucket and some of our absorbent materials for your future projects.

[@LegitStreetCars]

Thanks brother!! Do you work for Oil Eaters or a distributor?

[@thesenuts2347]

Its Not for sale anymore ;/

[@chris18228]

By Harbor Freight one it cheaper

[@LBCTITAN]

It's really just a bin or sink where you personally do the manual washing. It does nothing to make your parts clean, your solvents do all the work.

[@jamesbarratt593]

And this guy definetly works for them. Words like amazing, and ow they gave a discount etc. Too much talking. Yep he’s an employee.

[@LegitStreetCars]

You totally got me James. Please don't tell anyone!! Please!!

[@expatconn7242]

It’s just a painted harbor freight one hahaha

[@bon2198]

Tide and water will beat any parts washer solution.

[@chriskazaglis]

I'm sorry but this is garbage because you're recommending this Parts washer but the only difference between it and the one at Harbor Freight is it's black and you have to order it instead of buy at store but when you order it you speak to somebody in the United States great. But it at Harbor Freight it's like 50 bucks. No don't get me wrong I hate Harbor Freight but the parts washer you have is made in the very same Factory in China that makes the one for Harbor Freight and you're trying to pretend like it's something radically different know it's the same damn thing except for its painted black. I lose respect for people who try to pawn crap off onto others. And no I have never seen a professional shop use one of these parts washers. The information you said about Oil Eater is good and you compared it to Diesel and kerosene and I appreciate that Honesty but it takes me off that you're trying to to do some stupid sales pitch. I don't have respect for your channel and I'm not subscribed to it anymore.

[@pettypendergrass8596]

*tastes like SPAM* .. it is!.. it is SPAM!!

[@klwthe3rd]

1st!

[@RL-RL]

What's so special about it? Same parts washer that every one sells for $100. Just different color... Looks like an ad for the company... Free advertising.
