I had good luck with soaking in krud kutter,then washing in Safety Kleen parts washer at work. Then soaked in Mobil one oil overnight. Like in earlier replies if the cog or chain are damaged it will always make noise. Gl Hammerhead
 
All of these are good for cleaning a crusty chain to make usable. Measure from the center of one pin to 12 inches. Should be center of another chain pin. If the center of the pin is much past the 12 inch mark, the stretched chain isn't meshing properly with your gears.
 
thanks for the replies. I'll have to get the bike out and shoot some pictures of the gears.

do these bikes actually get ridden enough to wear out the teeth on those steel gears??
