Re: Engine cleaning

["diamonds (chris richwine)" <diamonds@talon.net>]

I use "simple green" on my engine which works just
fine but then again my engine is never dirtier than surface
dust....no oil in my baby........
Spray on while engine is warm not hot....
Let sit for about a minute....
Hose off with light water pressure from tap....
DO NOT USE A PRESSURE WASHER....
Those of you without the VR6 or the VR6 Corrado should
make sure to cover your distributers' with plastic.
