As to the type, I've no idea. Hard white stuff in a jar in the kitchen cupboard.
Dishwashers are for cylinder heads and inlet manifolds.

Quite a reasonable point here, but I bought and installed the dishwasher within....24 hrs and fixed the toilet as well this week so when she goes to work next week, Playtime !!ChrisHC wrote:I would avoid using the dishwasher as a parts washer until the new year. Christmas has enough potential for friction without adding that in, however sensible and reasonable that use might appear to the male mind.
