Well I made the mistake of letting my fuel rails sit out for 6 months :doh:. One of them is ok, but the other is full of rust. I've let it soak in wd-40 for a couple days and that helped, but I can't seem to get it all out. What's a good way to clean this thing out?

since you've spent so much on this motor, i think you should do it right and get a set of new like aeromotive rails for 100 bucks or so....you might even be able to find some new used ones in good shape...plus they look pretty sweet.... :nice:
 
The problem is Im completely broke now, so $100+ for fuel rails when I can use my stock just isn't gonna work. I would have to wait at least another month before I can afford it. I hate insurance payments :nonono:
 
put some lime-away with rust remover in there full strength over night and flush it out with water pressure in all directions. A local did it this way and he has not had a problem. Just be sure to dry it out REAL good before using it.
