You told me that's how the engine bay in a facelift was supposed to look when I bought mine from you - something about reducing fuel consumption??  ;D

If it's stuck, force it.  If it breaks, it needed replacing anyway........

Mate, that is exactly the look I'm going for. Any chance of a step by step guide, with photo's, of how you got it to that stage.

That picture reminds me of the famous Candid Camera spoof event of the late 1960s early 70s, when a car 'drove' into a filling station, and, if I remember correctly, the filling station staff were told by the 'owner' that his engine had been stolen! :D :D :D :D   At the time is was very hilarious :D :D :D ;)

Thats exactly what I was looking for !!
Thanks alot !!
:)

Oh, and another thing,
How is it soo clean !!??

I mean, it looks brand new !!

Mine looks very dirty and all,

Do you guys wash it ??

I once took it to the service station to get the engine cleaned, and all they did was use high pressure air, and then they sprayed it with diesel.

I asked them why they didnt use water ( cuz that would definately clean it up ) and they said that using water would mess up all the electronic stuff :(

The one in the pic is soo nice and clean, even the most inner and smallest of pipes is spotless !!

Well, i cleaned up this engine recently, i used proper condensed shampoo and water under high pressure...

the electronic stuff and all the connections are quite good secured from the water access.

The important thing is to use not too much water (especially near the ecu), also the engine must not be hot or warm when you start cleaning. After cleaning i start the engine and let it run on idle for half an hour with open bonnet to make it all dry...
