EDIT: while you've got the sync cap off, I'd personally drop a little engine oil down the shaft too just to keep the bearing oiled (to prevent the squeal).
thanks mate, i simply wiped it with a rag and it came up clean as, inside the CMP was clean as not a stain or mark on it, i already have it back together but once later on i will do that. great thinking

I am currently uploading the cold run video, will wait until i get comments before i try a operating temp one as something weird happened i think so ill await comments once i upload it
