Use Kerosene, it is much safer than gasoline.

Don't use soap and water unless you flush the cases with the above solvents. Don't use gas..you might get hurt.

damn i guess im lucky not to get blown up. but i hear kerosene is good.

Earlier in the year mine got both gear clusters replaced (missing teeth off of the 2nd gear pair). Lots of crud in the case. Just tipped it on its side and flushed it out with brake cleaner, actually. Did a good job. But, kerosene sounds like a good idea too.

if the cylinders are off, why don't u just split the cases..............

i did. just doused it in gas. poured it in my neighorbor's dogs's waterbowl and blew the rest out with air.
