Pretty impressive!!

 

WOW! That is very nice! See how much newer the engine bay looks if it's cleaned regularly?

 

I use gunk foamy engine brite let it sit for about 5 mim then rinse with water. MAKE SURE TO COVER ur distributor and filter with plastic bags or you'll be very sad.

 

yah and what u can do is just pull ur battery go to town just making sure water doesnt go down ur spark plug holes and let it dry before hooking up any electricity thats what i do.

 

or you can do the extreme end and pull out the engine scrub down the firewall, ill take pics next time i do this show u guys how its really done, and clean up the engine while its on the stand buffer out everything.

 

Yeah and that takes what, about a day and a half to do w/ out a life and 2 people? And if you really wanna "detail" the engine I recommend using Colgate Navigator or Precision, with the fine, soft bristles.

 

Using cold water from a hose(no pressure washer) on a warm engine will help. Clean under the hood first with some degreaser & a brush. Then do the same to the engine taking care around electrical stuff. With the engine still wet spray some water based dressing, close hood & let run for 5 minutes or so. Wipe of all excess dressing.

 

Hey project widow, what did you cover up when you did it??

 

not at all takes 1 person about 30 minutes to pull the engine, whole job takes about an hour and a half, with 30 minutes of cleaning, but hey i guess to someone without the know how and the correct tools i guess it may take u longer , the hardest part is putting the hood back on with one person cuz it's kinda heavy and bulky, to hold it with one hand and try to match up the screws. i'll have to pull my engine in about 3 weeks to put in a new b16 cuz my current one needs to be rebuilt. I'll make sure i put up pics so u can see how its done RIGHT.:slap:

 

hey, mind pointing out where those things are in an Integra's engine? Thanks
