Cleaning Engine, and underhood?


Recommended Posts

Posted

well my truck's got about 200k miles on it.. my engine and everything under there isint too fancy its just a straight 6, ford power.

just wondering how i should go about degreasing it and cleaning it all up,, they're is oil and stuff under it and what not just wondering what yall recommend.. thanks

also ive noticed my radiator is leaking from the top, where the top hose goes.. should i just replace the radiator or try to fix it by putting radiator leak fixer or whatever in it? ive heard it can mess up the internals in the motor if i did go that route, but i dunno. thanks

strapping 2 amps together ? like bolting them next together? using bungy cables to hold them down? or wiring separate amps to each sub

1st, don't put that stop leak garbage in your vehicle, repair it correctly, probably a cracked hose.

2nd, don't detail under your hood, you can, and most likely will do more damage then good. how often do you really look under you hood anyways?

don't use any of those sealers ..i heard some actually do work but i think it depends on the situation...i guess if its a minor leak it will work...but i wouldn't risk it

really unless you have a show car it probobly isnt worth detailing under the hood. i would degrease the engine only if it has excessive oil and grime on it. or if you are checking for leaks
