Ouch! Gonna figure out where to put an oil catch tank and replace it. Anyway, some pictures before the clean:
All wires and electrical connections were sprayed with WD40 before being wrapped in cling film:
Obviously the throttle body and alternator were also covered up. Gave the bay a rinse with the hose on a light spray setting. This was followed by spraying everything with Megs APC (mixed 4:1). Used a small bathroom sponge and a microfibre cloth to clean then also rinsed and dried:
Always the hardest bit to clean and still got it far from perfect:
This was only a quick clean so didn't treat the engine bay with anything. Always worth checking your BMC (if you have one) as I found out...
And I only cleaned that about 5 months ago! All better now though
