Cleaning chain with kerosine?

Frenz 08GZ250 · 05-24-2011, 02:38 AM

I had just taken in my GZ250 for inspection and picked up a can of chain lube. I asked about using kerosine to clean the chain and he said it hurts the O" rings. I never heard of kerosine hurting anything and use it for washing cars just like the fire trucks do mixed with water. I am aware that the owners manual calls for kerosine. I clean and lube my chain every 200 hundred miles it is an easy task. Thanks, Rod Bay Shore NY
