When we took my engine apart, it was full of sludge, but all we did was soak it up and scoop it out, all clean. Runs great.

Some latex or nitrile gloves make it a bit better to do.

jsut don't use any harsh solvents when you are cleaning the inside of the engine. stick to stuff like WD-40 and a nylon brush(an oild tooth brush actually works great) to get the tough stuff up.
