has anybody bunged their alli head through a dishwasher?

was it ok? I assume the long hot wash?

It's pretty clean, I just want to get it extra clean

No, but I would be concerned about 2 things:

1) Corrosion
2) The Wife

I've put all manner of aluminum engine parts in the dish washer. I've had problems, but it wasn't corrosion.

I've heard the tip of doing it, just wanted to be safe - corrosion wise.

SWMBO isn't around at the moment so it seemed like a good time.

Why would it corrode the dishwasher

I'd wash it again in kerosine.

I've done it. Just heat the part to drive the water off after you're done.

Works well, just be prepared to duck when the wife sees it!

I use my dishwasher as a parts cleaner all the time.
It will make a polished alumimun tarnish a bit, but will polish back up nicely.

Reminds me of the time I used the kitchen oven to "bake" the new paint on my old Tiger's cylinder. "SHE WHO MUST BE OBEYED" was out shopping, of course, and I got it downstairs to the workshop just as she arrived. I do remember her asking our, then rather young, daughters just what they'd been cooking! "Discretion being the better part of valor", I chose to remain in the workshop.
