I try to keep up with the engine compartment as best I can. I currently just wipe down as much as I can using A soft cloth and Vinylex. Anyone have a better way to keep things clean? I need as much help as I can get!!

My engine area is getting dirty also. With my previous Mustang and my Explorer that I have now I would spray the engine bay with Simple Green and hose it down with a pressure washer, and it comes out clean as a whisle buttttttt with this '05 I don't think that would be a good idea with all its electronic this and that. I guess I'll have to get a rag and do it by hand.

Of course he is... he's our resident know-it-all and post wh0re! And without him here things would be boring. We'd have nobody to edemucate us on the superiority of German cars... and we'd have nothing to chat about except Mustangs...
