Cylinder head cleaning
2 parts to this question... what's the best way to clean aluminium fins on an air cooled engine? (and protect once cleaned?)
The exhaust ports have very heavy carbon/soot build ups (diesel engine btw) I don't want to attack it with tools yet as I don't want to
damage the aluminium beneath it, so is there anything I could soak the head in that will break down the build up without attacking the aluminium?
There are two cylinder heads, each one is small (about 20x10x10cm) so I won't need a big container to put them in and will only need a few
litres to completely submerge them.

Carb/ brake cleaner and give it a soak. Soda blasting on the fins.
