Kevin, The dishwasher can‘t do any harm but i reckon a good old steam clean would be far better, Thanks for the shout out! Cheers Dave

[@MaximMini]

I honestly didn't know how desperately I need a dishwasher in my workshop :-). The 'Innenmessgeraet' is finest Eastern German qu a lity and will not let you down. Keep up your great work.

Have you tried more parts ? One fellow ran vinegar in the bottom, and baking soda in teh "door" to neutralize the vinegar....it took care of flash rust. IDK

[@TheGentlemensMotorRacingTeam]

wow now that clever

[@LoneStarMini]

now that is thinking outside (or would it be inside) the box.. quite interesting..

[@TheGentlemensMotorRacingTeam]

ha ha, cheers Randy

Friend of my uses a chlorine tablet in his workshop dish washer.........haven't tried it myself yet as I would have to ditch my fridge to have a dish washer in the workshop..........not sure I could live without a cold drink...;)

[@CooperSTraveller]

Nice job and same dishwasher as we have ..... wonder if my wife would let me use it lol

[@roberts8783]

add vinegar?

[@simonharper4199]

is that a gold seal factory recon?

[@TheGentlemensMotorRacingTeam]

I genuinely don’t know, apart from being gold how would I know 🧐

[@simonharper4199]

I believe BMC 'a' and 'b' series engines were only painted gold if they were a factory rebuild. They used to be the 'gold standard' pardoning the pun of recons. They did a silver recon (painted silver) as a lesser rebuild option.

Hah! Great minds think alike! I've had a maytag geared up for over a year. I disconnected the heater and run a bucket of solvent.

[@TheGentlemensMotorRacingTeam]

genius idea

[@trumpisaconfirmedcuck5840]

I don't think a small block chevy will fit in a dishwasher unfortunately :(

[@TheGentlemensMotorRacingTeam]

ha ha, no :) - tbh the results were not amazing but it was fun giving it a go - glad you enjoyed the video
