best way to get rid of glass beads?!?!?
i taped off my lower intake of my stealth ram and bead blasted it...but like an idiot didnt think that they injector holes needed to be blocked off also....what is the best way to get glass beads out of this intake i have tried alot of different things and the engine is almost ready to go back together and i really want to make sure that i have all of the beads out of there so they dont get sucked into the motor. i have tried compressed air...brake clean....water....pressurized water...damn near everything i can think of, is there anything that will do a better job, yet not take off the powdercoated finish? thanks alot

Hot soapy water and rifle and shotgun cleaning brushes, run them into everything you can reach. And when you think you have it clean, DO IT AGAIN !!!

...also...
Pet stores have very long soft cleaning brushes in the fish section.
There used for cleaning filter pickups, bubble tudes, etc. on aquariums.
