chain cleaner

my cycle chain has been dirty for a while and I cleaned it with a nylon brush, but it just doesn't seem to do the trick. I got some grunge buster degreaser and it cleaned up pretty well. the issue now is the chain has a little side to side movement that I am not sure about.

put some gunk back, that should take up some of the slack

Simple green in a bucket works fine.

ok, so obviously engine degreaser would not work. what about soap and water? palmolive= tough on grease easy on hans?

I've heard of the o-rings crumbling, so I guess you could check to see if yours are intact. Perhaps the chain is shot, hence the excessive movement?

Strong arm spray is what your looking for it will do the job. $18 after shipping you'll love it its a motorcycles best friend chrome rust remover cleans every inch of your bike from Carb gas leak stains to rims and exspecially your chain this stuff leaves a protective waterproof coating that blocks dirt.
