My car has 365K on it. I have never done the engine compartment until this weekend, but it certainly needed it. It was caked with years of greasy dirt. It has several small leaks that need to be pinpointed and getting it good and clean should help me find them. I also pulled off the air cleaner and it is amazing how much of the RH side of the engine is exposed when the air cleaner is out.

Best of luck with the rest of the project. It looks like fun.
