The parking lot splooged a bit of tar on my solution line. I'll watch out for the patched areas when I am laying out my lines from now on. Any solvents you guys have found work really well at getting this stuff off?

I use pog on a rag. If i need something a little stronger i use rubbing alcohol. But pog generally works well. Use a wet towel afterwards to remove the pog

Forgot to mention (because i use it in place of pog) is citrus based spotter. I use pro chem citrus pro and citrus gel(gum remover) to remove tar stains on my hoses because it worksand is on my truck. But when i do it at my shop i use odorless mineral spirits. Only because it works and is handy i have a part's washer with 30 gallons of the stuff handy

Sorry Matt! I was listening, but also imagining stuff at the same time. I thought since I only have my Salsa/blower exhaust heat exchanger working right now my temps wouldn't be hot enough to worry about it yet. Not so!

Yep, 7 weeks since I ordered my dang heat exchanger. Dude said it was done almost 2 weeks ago... I want my new heat exchanger!

Thanks for the tips guys!
