My first model 15 was yellowish from oil and time.

I doused it with several cans of engine gunk, loaded it into
my red wagon, tied that to my bicycle, and rode to the gas station
where they had a hot-hose and washed it down.

I brought it home, dried it in the sun, and then sprayed it with
30W 'til it was soaked. Then I took an airhose to it to get rid of
the excess oil

The transformation was truly amazing!
