warm soapy water cleans them. Make sure you re oil it very well afterwards though. | |

Use Semi synthetic, Fully is too thin for the 8 valves. i used an engine flush on mine when i changed the oil. You just put it in, let the car fast idle for about 10 mins, then switch off, and change the oil. didnt seem to do much, but has proberbly done something :lol: | |

no need to run fully synthetic in a 1.2 8v motor mate. just use good vaux mineral oil or even semi synthetic | |
