My 95Z has oil leaks and i would like to clean off the engine so i can see where the oil is really coming from, but i don't want to ruin the opti-spark, how did u guys clean off your engine?

 

Well when I first got my car I did the big no no with it , I pressure washed the hell out of it with a all purpose cleaner. Ever since then when I do my weekly detail on it I just wipe it of spray it with water. I have never had a problem with the opti. I think we should call up " Myth Busters " with the whole opti and water myth

 

I spray engine cleaner all over a rag and wipe it down.

 

Elbow grease, a couple rags, and some elbow grease. Some have gotten away with spraying the whole motor down, alot havent.

 

put some dye in your oil to find the leak...wet rags will work for cleaning and like they said dont worry about the opti unless your dripping puddles everywhere

 

Simple green!

That stuff just cleans like crazy and you don't have to worry about what it does to your skin. Make sure its at least 1:1. I buy it by the large bottle in conentrate form.

In the past, I have always been a firm believer that if it doesn't burn your eyes, nose, and skin, it's just not a good cleaner. I tried Simple Green and love it. It works just as well.

Simple Green - powerful, yet, drinkable.......

amazing

 

I use a steam cleaner every now and then to get those imposible to reach spots. I just wouldn't recomend spraying in the opti area. And simple green is definatly the way to go!

 

Dude, I love the smell of Simple Green.


Does not taste good though lol.

Damn friends on a dare lol.

 

that stuff works pretty well, we use it at my store to remove oil build up on like the cash register and stuff like that

goof off works pretty well, but its really strong stuff, we got grafitted on our garage door and it took the grafitti off and the paint on the door 20 year old paint.
