It was more messy than anything, Just got some cans of carb cleaner and soaked everything down that had gook or stuff on it. I had a leak from my shifter so it had fluid all over it with dirt attached ICK!! Soaked it, wiped it, sprayed some more, and most of it finally started to just fly off on the ground. Made sure to get all the oils and such off, and used some rust inhibiting Engine paint, Gloss black. coated everything with a nice couple of coats and that is all. I went ahead and cleaned the whole undercarraige while I was at it.

I still need to do the area around the rear brakes and the springs and such. I might try and do the underhood Wire mod tomorrow night too. Easy to do while its on the lift.
