So I bought an engine kit off eBay like many others have done, and read on one thread that somebody had some dirt/metal shavings in their crankcase of a new engine(not sure where they bought it) that they washed out with wd40 a couples times and then used oil. Now my question is it necessary for me to clean my engine before using it? What are the chances of it being just as dirty or would it even matter that much or be harmful? I don't really want to go through the hassle of opening everything up and really just want to build it already and start riding. Also I would think wd40 would be somewhat harmful becomes of the abrasives it has for cleaning.
