The ZEP citrus cleaner worked well! I used it full strength. I soaked the parts overnight, cleaned them up with a stiff brush and hot water, and they were, for the most part, ready to go. I had to clean the groves of the gears with a putty knife, but the old grease came off easily. Nice to hear the cams click as the winch rotates!
And yes, Fred, the garage has a nice citrus scent! Once I get the allen bolt out of the other winch I'll repeat the process.
