Dukes demon engine clean a jelly that you brush on, then wash off.... works awesome....

Scratch that.... If you can find it... I think the EPA doesnt care for this product much, and it may not be made anymore...

Antifreeze in a crockpot works also... Just tear down the engine first, and remove the bearings....

Just give it a good coating of paint stripper,leave rest for 10 min then scrub.Rinse well with warm soapy water, will come up like new!
