I gotta go along with Russ. Back when I was in Germany in the Army, I was
trying to clean some carburetors. Back then, you couldn't get simple stuff
like gunk and carburetor cleaner in Germany. I got them as clean as I could in
diesel fuel, hosed them off with water, then decided to try Easy Off Oven
Cleaner. It was the kind that said get the oven hot. So, I sprayed the
carburetor housings, and put them on a cookie sheet in the oven at 425 degrees
for 30 minutes (like chocolate chip cookies!). The smell started all at once,
and no amount of fans, open windows, or anything else would clear the stench
from the kitchen. Six months later, breakfast buscuits still tasted like Weber
carburetors cleaned with Easy Off!

I can testify from experience that this approach is not fail-safe for some
kinds of
automotive work. Using the home oven for the curing of thermoset plastics, for
example,
elicits a lot of nose-twitiching-- progressing to delicate snorts-- then to
high-pitched
verbal abuse-- when the oven owner returns home.
