What do you guys think? Pretty big improvement I think. I started by covering the essentials and electricals with foil. Sprayed simple green over everything and let it sit for a minute. Set the nozzle on the hose for stun and sprayed it down. Went for a ride on the 219 to warm the engine up a bit and came home and wiped everything off. Then I sprayed some CD-2 engine detailer on everything and let it sit. I think I sprayed a little bit to much so I had to wipe somethings off but I think it came out ok. Here are the pics:

Ya it only took about an hour and it could have taken way less. I took my time trying to wipe everything down. I did the bottom of the hood and wiped everything twice I think.
