I believe the correct size opening, for soda blasting, is 3/32".  Here is a link to my gun, which seems to work well enough for me:

Piute is also correct:  elbow grease, degreaser, hot water, and a brush, will do wonders.  Me, I look for the easy way, though.  

I never thought about it until I read Piute's post:  hand cleaners, like Goop, and Orange Pumice, will likely do a very good job, with a scrub brush of some sort, at removing engine grease and grime (probably best to avoid the pumice stuff, though...).  I will have to give that a try this weekend.  Thanks, Piute!  Cheers!
