I'd look for non-chlorinated brake or carb cleaner. I'm no chemist, but I've heard the chlorinated types can damage aluminum over time. I do use the stuff and it does work well, but I never use it on anything aluminum. Probably the best thing to do, however, is call Gem-Tech and speak directly to Doc Dater or Kel to get their advice on the best types of cleaning fluid for that Outback.
