Can somebody please explain why it is necessary to wash the cylinder bores in hot soapy water prior to assembly?
What's wrong with a thorough scrubbing with solvent?
Is soap and water actually better?
Water produces flash rusting which is hard to avoid and kind of annoying.
Or maybe using water is some kind of rirual that we can't let go of. Like baptism in the River Jordan.
What's the real reason?
