rebuilding engine...
When it comes to washing the parts, we just got a nice spray cabinet and 55 gallons of non-corrosive solvent. I am throwing all of the obvious stuff in there but what about some of the electricals? Like the starter, or the VP-44? I was kinda thinking the starter should be ok since it hangs out in the water, mud and crap anyway while riding around on our trucks, but what about the VP? Both are pretty grimy and I have cleanind alot with pressure washer prior to teardown and cleaned quite a bit with solvent as well. This spry cab. would sure make the job easy though. What are your thoughts?

Surely you jest!!!! Don't even think about putting electrical components in the washer. Pistons, bearings, chains, painted parts that you want to stay painted on unfaded, fan drives, injectors, IP's and plastic parts are just some of items to keep out.

Point taken. No electricals in the washer.
