What is the best cleaner for this mess? 700

posted by  someone claiming to be 777 on  Wed Jun 6 15:04 CST 2007 [RELATED]

Greetings:

One of my seals to my 90 740 GLE Wagon went bad! And now oil has entered into the timing belt area. Of course the timing belt is toast and or will be toast eventually, but the entire area has been washed down with motor oil. I was wondering if not some sort of degreaser if not brake fluid might help in the removal of the oil. My biggest concern is the oil residue. I am going to replace the belt, and whatever seal that went bad. The car runs good, but the loss of oil is about 1-2 qts per day (currently off road/parked). What say you?


Best Regards
