Definitely use new bolts, the old ones are stretched on installation.

This is probably splitting hairs to the point of ridiculous (I got another
email saying that done improperly, this repair increases the chance of a
head or block failure), but should we use the new bolts or the old bolts.
Also, Will, on your advice I've been using the Meguiar's 40 on my interior
and it IS great!!

Better than a swab, is to clean the old bolts, then put carb cleaner down
the holes and run the bolts in lightly, remove, clean and repeat, etc

When I cleaned out the bolt holes on my 325is, I
repeatedly filled the holes with carb cleaner and then
stuck a swab down to dry it out. Did that until the
swab came out clean. Then stuck a vacume down there
(connected to a piece of fuel hose) to pull and chips
or garbage that was left. The holes were squeaky
clean when done.
