RE: Detailing the RX7 FD engine bay

in #cars7 years ago

Nice, but its hell on your back when you have a bad back mate so be careful.
I try to strip out and then clean parts otherwise you can never get it totally clean. Theres always some dirt in those hard to get to places. Recommend removal of the alternator and UIM, polish em up with a brass brush, clean under and around and then put it all back :)
I took the whole nose off just so I could clean behind it! Maybe I am a bit anal about it....

Sort:  

maybe even try removing a few of those recommended that are easy, covering up all the loose holes and giving it a nice steam bath?!

@jasonwhite I now regret my decision yesterday, I've fried my back again! I should have listened to the physio about the 6 week recovery time, doh! I need to remove the UIM to replace vacuum hoses in the future so that will probably be the best time to do the cleanup :)
