Needed to replace the coolant reservoir tank this weekend (bad coolant level sensor) so I ended up cleaning up the engine bay.
Here`s the new clear tank next to the old black one.
Greasy intake manifold.
Decided to use BLACKFIRE Wet Diamond Waterless Wash Concentrate (New Formula). With the 1:48 dilution ratio, it would only cost me $1.56 to fill up the 48oz sprayer at the current $24.99 price tag on a 16 oz bottle of concentrate (before any discounts or coupon codes )
I used the 48oz Chemical Resistant Pressure Sprayer. The low spray pressure on the widest spray pattern gave me confidence I wouldn`t be injecting water or waterless wash into any sensitive harnesses under the hood.
Before removing the coolant tank.
Removed.
Replaced. I should buy gloves.
I used PERL to dress up the engine bay. Undiluted. I`ve been using this stuff for years under the hood and I`ve never had a problem with it. I`m confident the next time I pop my hood, all the black plastic, rubber and vinyl will look just as good as the day I cleaned it.
Much better!
I had to run to the Auto Parts store to pickup coolant, so I ended up picking up an oil change kit while I was there.
Thanks for reading!
