Topic: pulling the transmission

[CB750 SS]

The project continues...

I've got the engine completely apart and I've got 3 questions.  I'm looking to replace the main chains and paint the bottom engine case.

How do I remove the transmission.  everything else just lifts out.  Do I need to remove the gear selection mech?

Is there a product I can buy the "eats" carbon build up? that's safe on the engine. 

Can I run the cases throught the dish washer?  in prep for a light sanding then paint?

Do I need to replace the main chain tensioner?  Engine has 44K on it.

Sorry 4 questions.

Thanks, Denton
