Along the same lines: went to my local Ace hardware to get a can of acetone that was right next to the mineral spirits. Noticed they had several different brands of mineral spirits that ranged in price from ~ 6.00 - 11.00 gal depending on who's name was on the can! I bet they sell a lot of the highest priced brand tho to people that think there MUST be something different about it.

For small parts, simple green or any other non-flammable degreaser works well if you "cook" your parts in a crock pot.

Simple green smells like diet pepsi but it works Safety-Kleen's 105 Solvent works better.

The NAPA stuff works pretty well. It's no miracle juice, but the strength suits the application--don't need it to destroy the pump.
