I am one of the rare birds that uses WATER and degreaser freely on my motors. A lot of folks will not and I can understand that. I have never had a no start after letting the motor completely dry out...which may take a day or 2. Faster in the summer.
I use a product called Brown Royal...but I think any good degreaser will work...just don't leave it on too long. I also have a small car brush and old tooth brushes that I will get in all the corners with. Its just time. Once you get a new oil pan seal on...it will stay cleaner. Go with the silicon and not the cork one. The cork just does not last IMHO.
I JUST finished the MM's and oil pan seal on my 89. Still waiting to finish the TT and trans install.
