Why is my S10 Blazer not starting?

If you just want it cleaner in the vehicle I like the orange clean stuff Citra-Solv 1-866-237-7445 in a pressure washer
If you are rebuilding it: just take it in peices to the place that will bore it out and fit the cam bushings and have them tank it - if you are paying for machining they usually do not charge for the cleaning. Remember to pain the engine after you get it back: Red for chevy, gold for olds, Blue for ford, etc (keeps the rust off).
But mask off any openings
