Cleaned up the engine bay. Again..


Recommended Posts

Posted

I don't have any pictures from back when I first got the car, but it had to have one of the most disgusting engine bays I've ever seen. Absolutely filthy. Everything was caked in grime. The only shiny part was the blower, since it had just been replaced. I cleaned it again a couple of days ago, so.. here are some updated pics:

Looks good Shaun!! I'm sure it's wayyyy cleaner than my engine bay right now. lol

 

And yes the GP cover looks a ton better. My cover is safely nestled in my bedroom corner though. lol

Posted

Looks pretty good! :thumb:

 

Its definitaly cleaner than mine, considering I havent cleaned it in months.

I don't know I've never cared for the engine cover. And we know how that L67 likes heat, lol. Post the filthy pics!

JMB intake FTW!!!

 

Yeah, that intake is real nice but my buddy had to mod it some to fit his GP.

What did you use?

Purple Power degreaser (full strength) in a spray bottle and a nozzle on the garden hose.

Posted

I'm partial to full strength Simple Green, but whatever works!!, again it looks great

Posted

Looks great! Did that degreaser do anything to the rubber (make it look faded)? Just wondering.

That Corvette oil cap is really cool too. I ten to appreciate the little things.

 

(insert penis joke now)

Corvette oil cap? what's different about them? do they say "Mobil-1 synthetic oil only" or something? i noticed the color of the lettering was white instead of yellow which looks alot better.

Is it just me, or does someone need a new engine mount???

 

???

^^^Can't see the pic???, It shows up fine for me...

 

I was pointing out that digitaloutsider's engine looks like it is leaning a little to the left... i.e. bad engine mount perhaps

Posted

The engine doesn't lean, that's just the way most of the engine covers look(slightly bent).

WoW, those BEFORE shots look about 20x cleaner than my AFTER shots. :lol: I only cleaned my 3100 once, when I first got the car, I've been slacking off since then... Maybe this spring I clean it up..
