Jonce,

For cleaning engine compartments and such, I swear by Oil Eater.  You can
pick it up at Costco, or out here on the West Coast, you can buy it by the
Gallon at Kragen.

Cheers,

Jeff

Subject: Cleaning Engine Bay

Hi all
I pulled the vanagon motor on my 85 westi for the motor conversion and I
decided to clean out the engine bay of all the grime, Dust, Dirt and oil. Im
probably
going to use simple green or mineral spirits. Not looking to restore to
prestine condition. I just want to make it as clean as the new motor
install. Well maybe not
that clean.
Thanks Jonce
