How do you guys clean your motors?

Gunk engine cleaner or purple power cleaner or simple green. If you don't have any oil or stains just use soap and a wash mitt. Spray off the engine when its cold! Use a lite mist. Then spray on one of those cleaners. Try to avoid fuse boxes, battery, altenator, and coils. Let it sit 5-10 use a hard bristle brush on the plastic and a soft wash mitt on the paint or delicate parts. Spray off with light mist. Then if there are any oil or stains left concentrate on that area. I try to clean my engine bay every three washes. I just use soap and a mitt since I clean it often.

Don't spray water on the motor EVER.
Gunk is Junk


Get some cans of brake clean,electrical cleaner and some simple green with water with rags. That is all you need

Here's a pic of my engine bay lol




I know a rag will get most of the dust out but there's gunk accumulated in parts. Also it's hard as hell to get around the TVS.

Good question dude. I got a meet the 28th out in NJ and my engine compartment looks worse then yours. I had a coolant issue with my old radiator. I limped it for a few days until my new rad got in but there's dried coolant everywhere underneath the hood. LOL

And since this is about random bullshit... does anyone know how exactly this iTrader **** works? I have no idea how to give credit for people who bought from me, or have them give me credit, etc?

Just raced a evo..its built on 40 lbs. It makes 770 on that setup. He can turn up to 46lbs and it makes 815. On both it makes 600wtq. ******* car is fast.


I just made 680/546 today on my 20" rims. My 713 was done on light as 15" drag rims. That tune was corrupted and was rewrote today. That's the 680/546

You really, really don't want to see my engine lol. It's got ten years worth of crud baked on. I'll clean it when I pull it for the build.
