ENGINE BAY SUMMER CLEAN

[sweetcorne]

I started to tidy my engine bay up so I bought a load of bits off the bay

Before

After

Also getting the rocker cover done

Sorry - but I just can't see a difference []

All those cats look the same to me but nothing like the one i found under my car

 

[zcacogp]

Yeah, but it looks like the (cute, beautiful) kitten is in the middle of licking itself so it fits the "cleaning" title of the thread. It's not all bad ....

 

[sweetcorne]

[PSH]

[sweetcorne]

OK, you've sorted the photos - but what did you buy of the bay of E to make the difference?

All the bits needed so I didn't have to use the ones on my car Once I have swopped the parts over I will have them done then put them up for sale to recoup some money

Looks great. I might be interested to buy the metal bits as a job lot once you've swapped them over, so then I can do the same thing!

Hi Andy,

[Frenchy]

Nice !

yellow zinc mate trouble is I put a few bits on then didn't like how the rest looked so now the inlet manifolds off servo next and a good degunge so a bigger job than when I started. Getting all the nuts and bolts replated too

Cheers all for the comments

 

[sweetcorne]

Done some more cleaning today ready for electroplaters tomorrow

It's a slippery slope!

What have you cleaned those parts in? It's done a good job, whatever it is.

The nuts and bolts are new but need to be recoated to look the same as all the other stuff. I used a wire bush on a 4 inch mini grinder and don't I know it . Really thinking of taking the whole engine out How hard is it
