well, the previous owner of my car really neglected the engine bay so ive been trying to clean it up lately.My intake manifold looks all dirty and ugly, (sort of like in this picture below) and im having a hard time cleaning it. What can i do to make my intake look relatively new again? Thanks.

 

lots of degreaser, steam cleaner followed by pressure wash... if u have access to a hight temp pressure washer then that would be best after u let degreaer sit for an hour

 

spray paint it with high heat paint after you clean it

 

i wouldnt use a pressure washer unless your talking it off then

yeah i would polish it though

 

i said pressure washer cuz i originally thought that was his intake mani... then i read it and it wasnt his lol... but still degreaser is going to be his friend in this situation

 

yeah... polishing looks sexy as hell

 

I might end up just taking it off and polishing it, i think it would match nicely with my engine bay. Thanks for the replies.

 

Get some chrome up in that engine bay 5hp haha not
