Anybody got a good product for getting that old Rusty Jones out of my engine bay? Yanked the engine this week, time to paint under the hood. Thanks brothers!

I had decent luck with the airsol (sp?) spray bug and tar remover. Wd 40 may also work, as well as paint thinner etc. Lots of elbow grease and some good stiff brushes. Try cutting down the bristols on a 3 inch cheap paint brush.

Good Luck
