The engine in the 1984 300DT has some oil leaks which makes working on it more troublesome. I'm thinking I need to clean both the top and bottom of the engine and transmission to help identify where the oil leaks are coming from. I also have a kit that uses a dye and an ultraviolet light to help locate the leaks.

As to cleaning the engine and tranny, I've located two possibilities; one, a place that does professional pressure waashing for large heavy equipment and semi-tractor trucks. two, an auto detail business that uses a powerful steam cleaner.

Obviously steam uses far less water which might be safer for the engine and transmission. Your thoughts and ideas are appreciated.....
