John-Mann,

In regards to the cleaning of bolts, a soak and was in liquor thinner (LT), this will cut right through 99% of all oil and grease, (even 50 years old stuff) THEN throw then in the tumbler.

Also use the LT thinner to cut through the crude in the tranny. IF you have a electric parts washer, rig up the tranny over the bin and use a small diameter tube to reach the inside of the casing and let it fall into the parts washer, You may need to clean the solvent once or twice. Disposal of the very dirty LT can be a possible local used oil drop off or with fall coming you'll need some fire starter......
