Anal-retentiveness FOR THE WIN!

It's just cleaned with Oil Eater. It doesnt cause the white scaling like the Castrol SuperClean does and it doesnt burn my eyes when I spray it. After I cleaned it I lubed all the moving parts with Royal Purple Maxfilm.

There are write-ups on the other forum covering powder-coating the TB. I followed them when I cleaned and reset everything. btw, I set the thermowax on the counter using a heat gun to move it thru its paces.

If I take it off again I'll probably paint it with Duplicolor aluminum wheel paint. I painted the XKE's Stromberg carbs with it and they are beautiful. Or maybe not. The TMIC covers it up. The rotor housings are diamond graphite and the irons red but no one can see em!
