Pitted Alumnium
I've searched everything on cleaning an engine bay, but i haven't found any way to shine the aluminum on the alternator, or engine itself. I live near the ocean, so the salt tends to have it's way with my engine, and my Alternator is all pitted, and chalky looking.:banghead: :banghead: :banghead:
Does anyone know how to polish up the aluminum? |
try mothers mini power ball with the extension and some mothers polish it might do it
|
buy an alternator off a junkyard car, remove the internals and have the outside powder coated. then reinstall. no more problems.
|
Does it matter what car I pull it off of?
It would break my heart to see an 8 in a junk yard..:( |
if you are worried about having your heart broken by seeing a rx8 in the junkyard.
then pm the forum vendor mazmart. ive never dealt with them personally, but from what i gathered they are very reputable and respectable vendor, and that their pricings on used rx8 parts are also very fair. |
sand it down and polish it smoothly. :)

It's on my engine somewhat too. I asked Scott from Mazsport, and he said that a lot of cars get that down in Florida.
He said to use "Blue Coral Wheel Magic" then power wash it. I will take pictures of the corrosion later. Maybe my Car is telling me to swap a 20b in? :lol: |
