So my ‘85 RS is fully disassembled and I wanted to save some time cleaning the gearbox. I used a pressure washer and only now understand why that’s such a bad idea, especially for the gearbox.
There’s a pretty high chance that I got water in there. I still haven’t drained the fluid in there (old fluid sitting since at least 2013).
What’s the best way to proceed?
I was thinking of draining it tomorrow and checking for water, but what do I do if I find water??
