theres a product called engine brite.. it comes in a big spray orange can.... the sh1t is strong.. but it works on shining an engine.

CD 2 engine cleaner / detailer.. nice and shiny. but don't use on asphalt driveways...I got stains on it now... might need a little tooth brush to get the stubborn stains off the rough texture.

ps. don't breath that stuff.. you'll get a high.

I used Grease Lightning on mine and it worked great.

I use Simple Green exclusively and my 2+ year old engine looks like new still.

if you're white...than why does that pic of the eye look like a girls eye. and if that's not your eye (which i'm hoping) who's is it? oh...and nice clean engine! mines like that too...clean...

The white part is a joke. I am not white, not even close, Chinese and Cambo mix. The eye belongs to some model in one of my photography magazines.

I like cars with clean engine bays! So pretty to look at.
