JAG Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 I attempted to give my engine bay a good clean earlier think its the first clean its ever had under the bonnet looks a lil better tho just so many rust lookin brown bits tho :sTurns out my induction kits gone n began to rust to.... Did gettin it steamed make a lot of difference? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Did gettin it steamed make a lot of difference?Before the steam was applied, the traffic dirt muc off spray was sprayed on, which loosens all the gunk off.So when the steam is applied it rinses it all off with ease!It was then sprayed with a liquid that polishes up all of the black parts and make them look shiny!I found that it did clean out the bay pretty well, for 5 quid was definatley worth it!

Idrees Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 cant believe you didnt put a bag over the airfilter when you steam cleaned it I'd be more worried about covering the distrubutor cap and spark leads around the cam cover!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
