Spent some time yesterday in the bay scrubbing area's down. Is there some easy way to clean the engine bay on the drivers side without removed the steering column and steering box? I have a tiny wire brush that can fit and it worked to some degree but there's still a lot of nasty build up of "guk' around that area. Hubby mentioned possibly using a pressure washer, but I'm not fond of that idea especially since the tranny is still there (covered with a couple trash bags). It would probably make more sense to just remove that stuff, but I'm thinking no reason to remove something that works fine and doesn't need fixing. :shrug
- If I do have to remove it, how complicated would it be to reinstall the column and box?
- Also is it safe to wash the steering box? If so, with what? Engine degreaser? Simple Green? Dawn dish soap?
- Can it be painted?
Yesterday I went to Tasco and picked up some Metal Ready as well as a small can of POR15 just to have some. They didn't sell the Marine Clean though. Bummer.
