New radiator and clean engine bay.

Here are a couple pics of my car. I am trying to clean the engine bay. It seems like some stuff just won't come off. I'm guessing I won't be able to get it perfect. Any suggestions on cleaning th engine bay?

Yeah........ so you are asking on suggestions on cleaning the engine bay in the multimedia/photo gallery section and that makes sense to you?

It should be properly placed in the










really, the multimedia section is probably not the best place to ask cleaning questions. Maybe the S1 tech section, General automotive, or even RX-8 Discussion section. maybe i'm crazy.
