[SEL] Engine Cleaner?

Thu May 11 03:12:13 PDT 2006

I apply detergent motor oil, gently rub with fingers then rinse with car wash detergent.You just cant be in a hurry It takes many applications.It takes me a few weeks to clean one up  but the paint is not harmed. Any time you walk by the engine squirt a little oil on it rub a little then work on something else. Then every couple days rinse it off with mild car wash. Frank
