Wow... what an improvement.

This reminds me of the work I've done cleaning up the engine bay on mine since getting it mid-June. It is a whole lot better than when I first got it, but it remains a work in progress and I continue to work at it as time permits.

I want to keep it reasonable under the hood so it looks decent and cared for, but I have no expectations of achieving something clean enough to "eat off of" considering it is a daily driver. :lol:

Who cares if it's still got a little dirt, it's a big difference. Good job!

Are you CIA or DA?

That's cool. I've been needing to go FT for a while but they keep shutting me down. How about that discount nonsense, huh?
