Is it safe to use brake parts cleaner to remove oil residue?
Hey all,
New to the forum not to Miatas and had a general question about how safe it is to use brake parts cleaner and removing oil/residue from engines/transmissions? It works very well on oil and such but is it corrosive to the metal?

Kind of a waste, though. Buy some engine cleaner. Cheap, and works well to clean up the baked on crud. Engine should be warm to work the fastest.
One can will do what 3 cans of brake cleaner will take off.
