Engine bay greasy need help on cleaning
Im about to install my motor in a few weeks and my car is white so under my hood is covered in grease and old fluids. What degreaser or chemical can i use to make this cleaning a snap. I tried mean green and my grease just laughed at it. Any help please.

Go to a resturaunt supply company or store and find Uni-Kleen. Im a Chef and thats what we use at our establishment. Very potent make sure to wear rubber gloves and a brillo pad. Let it soak in the engine bay for 15 minutes and a little elbow grease should do the trick.

^ I also used a brush to get in some of the cracks and spots that are hard to reach,another thing I did that made it look a lot better was painted the plastic piece that sits above the windshield washer fluid,polished the brake lines,tb,valve covers,and a few other things and it came out pretty nice,
